The kit is the old Italeri Leyland DAF Commercial Motor special edition, this being a special edition because this was one of the rare occasions that an Italeri kit came with a right hand drive dashboard.
Because the decals were shot, I decided to go with my own ficticious colour scheme, that being Ford Juice green metallic paint from Halfords and a chassis that was painted in grey primer and the decals were from my decal spares box.
The rear susies were scratch built and the solid plastic tyres which came with the kit were swopped in favour for a set from a Scania wrecker which had rubber tyres and chrome wheels. The rear mudguards were taken from a Mercedes truck and the rear locker,roof lights, air horns and marker posts are from the truck accesories set.
Numberplates and surrounds are from KFS as is the DILLIGAF plate in the front windscreen ( a nod there to Kevin Bloody Wilson, the Aussie comedian) and there is a photo reduced poster of glamour girl Ruth Higham on the rear wall (although unfortunately, you can't quite see it!!)
The mountain bike behind the cab is from the Fujimi roof box accessories set, I had the idea to do this after a truck passed me once with one strapped to the back of it's cab.
As usual, all comments are welcome and thanks for looking guys.
