Johny mf Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 Well as the topic name say´s Here a Scania R620 V8 from siku that i took apart and resprayed. I didnt like the black on the original version so i added some other colour (what could it be ) The truck isnt finished because i think i want to add airhorns and a light bar and side scirts. Also i needs the name of the dealership written on it and some more nice decals! (ofcourse MF) I want to call this truck the: MF Express! Maybe some nice crhome standing exhausts! Here the result so far: And whit the side scirts i am making. 1 Quote
catkom3 Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 Very nice Johny,hope your feeling a bit better now, Regards joe. Quote
Light Land Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 Looks good so far.I hope I see a MF9240 on the back it one day. Quote
Johny mf Posted July 11, 2011 Author Posted July 11, 2011 Still not good Joe,but i bit true the sour aple and did the most of the work siting on my couch! Exept the spray painting of course did it out side. Can stand for about 20 minits and then i have to rest a couple off hours! Glad you like her Mabye in the Future there wil be one on indeed Quote
convo Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 looks good Johny , 8) nice paint finish and you have done a great job painting the truck chassis red ;). what colour are you going to paint the low loader red or white ? can i just say one thing i am not to keen on the red door handles and red side vent but that is just my opinion :) cheers peter Quote
Johny mf Posted July 11, 2011 Author Posted July 11, 2011 Thanks for the reply Convo I think about the door handle is personal taste and the airvent I must confess i like a bit of show truck as well! so that´s one of the reasons. And because it is for my dealership layout and the dealership is named after me the bos of the dealerships like a bit of showtruck also :P ;D Owh forgot: i want to paint the lowloader red and white Quote
convo Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 really looking forward to see what you do with the low loader keep up the good work mate ;) cheers peter Quote
MuirHillyBilly Posted July 11, 2011 Posted July 11, 2011 Looks well that, reminds me I must get some small MF decals sorted Quote
Lord Ferguson Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 Superb mate.... I can't wait to see it all finished... This is going to be something special I can tell already Quote
Manor Farm Posted July 12, 2011 Posted July 12, 2011 I like this alot. See on like this down my way like that Quote
MJB1 Posted July 14, 2011 Posted July 14, 2011 like convo's scania johny it looks great instead of putting MF decals on her though , maybe it would be cheaper to get in an outside haulier someone like tris perhaps ? Quote
MJB1 Posted July 14, 2011 Posted July 14, 2011 all thses conversions makes me want to go mess with my newray 4 series Quote
Johny mf Posted July 14, 2011 Author Posted July 14, 2011 Thanks for all the reply´s i am glad you like this truck! Well i think Tris his truck is a litle big for my dealership layout But if it where the 1:32 size i would hire him Quote
Deere-est Posted July 14, 2011 Posted July 14, 2011 I am 1:32! :laugh: Love it Johny. The white grill looks much better and I like all the red bit's too. Very nice. I think the side skirts will just finish it of nicely 8) Quote
