Doesn't Italeri make a few newer-model Scania kits? I'm guessing they'd all be RHD, but it would be a start.

no, they are all left handed kits. You have to buy aftermarket dash's to convert them to right hand drive. And 99% of the kits are single drive rears, where most of the scanias and european trucks in australia are twin rear drive.

Scania is a very popular truck here in Down Under Australia. Here in South Australia, the Metropolitan Fire Service use them as an all purpose rescue pumper fire appliance. They look great.

we have heaps up here in queensland. The firies (QFRS) have heaps of the Crew cabs as fire trucks, but now seem to be moving to the Mercs. We use 3 scania 6x4 prime movers, and 2 scania twin steer 8x4 rigid trucks at work. I love driving the scania rigids! both are very comfortable, and have the automated manual transmission, so they are easy to drive!

jesus mate! anirudh you sure get around! from armourama to here. great job on the truck!

great work! the silver and blue go together really well!

The hood on the Italeri Constellation WS was a short-lived offered by WS.  The design quickly changed to the more traditional hoods.  The kit hood can be still be seen on the road from time to time, but there weren't a lot of them built.   I wish Italeri would have waited a year to develop the kit as WS had the traditional hoods in production by then.  A resin caster in Australia casts some nice traditional hoods, but they are the Aussie versions.  With some gentle modifications they could be built as the north American WS's.
