Default my old hobby

i finished this about 7 years back when i was 17, but it was the last one i ever made so far. (i got into VW's after that :p)

based on the old Italeri kit for the DAF 95 Spacecab.

i replaced the roof for a low version made out of plastic sheet, the double rear axle was removed and a second steering axle was placed, and the complete wrecking kit was also made out of plastic sheet.
both steering axle's were fitted with wider tyres. the red paint is sprayed, the other parts were hand painted. interior was covered in blue fabric with roadmaps on the passenger seat and a sleeping bag and pillow on the bed, and offcourse the pornograhic poster against the back wall

I modelled it after my fav truck from a well known dutch company



here she is:











it's dusty as hell but it has been standing in my showcase for the last 7 years
oh yeh, it was also the only model that won me a price in a national show for contenders under 21.

Tjaaps secret fetish: DAF trucks

I've seen plenty of evidence of this in the Car Lounge over the years.
