Deere-est Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Stunning! Hell of a build, the man knows what he is doing. Do you know what the tyres are off? Will it have an injector on the back of it at some stage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshman Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Very nice. Are the pipes going to the wheel hubs, for lowing the pressure for soft ground. I no there is a company called Tireboss in usa that you can buy kits like that for Trucks mainly, for oilfield work mainly i think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bren Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 looks like a great build mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tellarian Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 CTI, Central Tyre Inflation, Ag Chem use it a lot, also Vervaet. However it is very common in Brasil, maybe 50% of trucks have it - particularly in the Soya regions. Roads go from superb to cobbles to tracks in very few kilometres..

marshman Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Arr, thanks mate. Not sure why you would have it on the trailer too though? I know it would stop it sinking but it would produce more drag to if it was hard but slippery on top. I guess you just have to know when to lower the pressur.

Geoffrey Posted June 20, 2009 Author Share Posted June 20, 2009 it costs a lot money, one of the models. but you get a great hand build model for it. I'm glad i have it in my collection now Here 2 photo's of the 1:1 models my 1:32 Vervaets are based on: The hydrotrike from contractor "Weco de hondsrug" The XXL from contractor "H. van Oosten" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Wowsers!! I bet they cost a fortune but like you say, hand built. You have to pay a craftsman for his hands. Excellent models. Does he use the Norscot Jag 880 cab? Also, will the builder be making you an injector for the XXL like in the photo of the real one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Posted June 21, 2009 Author Share Posted June 21, 2009 your right, Richard uses the cabs of the norscot jaguar 880 spfh. i think the cabs look rather good on those vervaet models He only builds the machines them selfs. He doesn't build injectors. I gues i nee to have a go on a injector myself. I also bought a nother Vervaet for my collection, A 2010 model with the 19m3 tanker.
