JanMF Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 Nice conversion Very well paintwork ! Explanation about this conversion ? Best regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack_c Posted March 28, 2012 Author Share Posted March 28, 2012 Thanks! Really happy with how it came out, I only had to use two tractors to make this, it's based on a universal hobbies T6020 chassis and then a Siku 4270 as the panels All the other detail etc was salvaged from the T6020, cab interior, lights, wipers .. then just a artisan beacon Thanks again for the positive comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
