Mick's Scania S770 4x2 Italeri 1/24.

Day early but not sure I’ll get time tomorrow. Here’s the victim for the GB Italeri limited edition Scania. Not sure now about the conversion now as there are no uk reg numbers so will save it for another kit. Here are the contents of the box plus my go to reference book by George Dent, also a reference pic for the suzie cables which surprisingly once again don’t get included in such a large model.


Good luck everyone with your builds

Nice one Mick.
I'll just move this to the GB section for you.

Good looking truck that Mick.

I'm not normally one for reference books but that looks quite interesting. There's a huge preview on Google books but it's not the same as having it in your hand.

Thanks for that Ian, typical me, late or wrong place

Thanks Andy, I picked it up for a previous build, I find it easier if I’m constantly referring to something. I first came across his work in model railways, relented modeller

It looks a good kit.
I might have a look at that book review...

Nice choice Mick, on my return to modelling I built an Italeri Scania Topliner and it came out well even though some parts needed a bit of fettling and the instructions were, to my mind, a bit lacking but I am sure you will make a cracking model out of this kit.

Some interesting stuff in it Ian and a good selection of different vehicles

And we’re off. First job removing all the unwanted items from the sprues that are not required in this kit due to new parts. Then work starting on the chassis, got to take my time as I really would like all wheels to be on the ground (at the same time )
