I have had one or two offers for them,some of them have still got the cellophane on,never been opened,but like a lot of old stuff I have,I’m loathed to get rid of them.Much to my wife’s disgust!
I have several Heller tilt and fridge trailer kits,as well as a 141 Scania.
aww shame i was not too far from your home town the other day, was in angleur just outside liege…pete
Hi all thought i would throw on some piccys of the model i’ve just finished.
Hope you like them.
I have wandered onto this thread having never seen anything like this before, but this is amazing. I built my kiddies a fully sceniced-up model railway on an 8x4’ board when they were born and I thought that was good but these models blow simply blow it out of the water.
they are fantastic thats for sure…
Hi i like very much to look at all the fantastic work that the moddler can do!
I’m sure you will enjoy to look at this collection:
toprun.ch/truck/11-2006/Kit/kit/
A collector in France use to collect all the truck kit in 1:24 in closed boxes. You will find the Italeri production as well as all the american ones (AMT Monogram…) !
Enjoy

they are all brill but why dont you make a scale piece of road to stand them on, they looked real but even i know you can not get a 44 tonner on a table …well done
some of my 1/50 scale models
my old employer walsh western model
his is 1/50 scale walsh western scanias
heres a pic of my italeri streamline done up with my own name
wow what a fantastic thread…i’ll have to dig out my pictures of my italeri models 
Wincanton never had one of these!
one thing i have wondered is why do they always always make them as left hookers?
also, how do you do your own liveries? is it a staedy hand and a good eye for detail or do you somehow print it and stick it on?
im thinking of making one for work, in works colours, in my spare time just a sort of way to say thank you for giving me the break into this industry…(some people may think this might be sad but i like doing things like that!)
THERES A CROWD CALLED KFS WHO DO ALOT OF RIGHT HAND DASHBOARDS FOR THE VERIOUS TRUCKS,M&G MOULDINGS ARE ANOTHER CROWD ALSO.IT IS STRANGE THAT THEY DON’T DO BOTH.
I GET MY DECALS DONE BY A BLOKE CALLED MARK MAGUIRE WHO WAS FORMALLY OF TRUCKING FIRM MAGUIRES OF CHELTENHAM.I HAVE BOUGHT MOST OF MINE OFF HIM 1/50 & 1/24 SCALE.
MINE ARE ORIGINALLY BLAIRS OF N IRE WITH THE NAME CHANGED TO MY OWN.ITS A GREAT HOBBY.I MUST HAVE 20-30 MOSTLY SCANIAS
141/142/143 AND 144S ALL TO BE DONE AND SOME FRIDGES TILTS ALSO.
CHEERS

Hello All You Model Makers, Glad you like my Thread…If anyone is interested i have 2 Italleri 1/24 scale fridge trailers and a VERY RARE Italleri 40 foot container trailer for sale, All brand new Boxed and unmade… Anyone interested plz private message me. Regards Kev
How much do you want for one of the fridge trailers?
i will have to clear it with the chancellor (she’s at work at the mo) but might possibly be interested
Cheers

ps, are they quite easy to make or are they very fiddly? i used to make model airplanes until i was about 20 then gave up as i got a bit bored with them.
