Hello friends!

Here are a few pictures of yet another project I have been working with lately. It is the Italeri model No 792 Scania Topline 143R.


I decided to build it almost according to the box but added a few features such as lifted tag axle and a few other things. More pictures will follow soon.

Best regards

Hello again!

Here are a few more pictures of the R143M Topline model.
I added chromed exhaust pipes and trailer connection cables. Other modifications from the original model are another bigger fuel tank and modification of the front rims. The modification of the rims is simply to move the spacer ring to the outside instead of the inside. By doing this the front wheels comes further out and the front axle assembly does not look so narrow. In my opinion the Scania front axles on the Italeri models are too narrow. When building them according to original the front wheels end up too far in under the front fenders







Next step is to finish and attach the cab.
