   Ulf,

        You did a really fine job on this build ! I like the way it looks . I have a couple of those kits to build. I want to do them with the low roof, as heavy haulers.

The Revell AG Volvo F12 kits are not related to Italeri as far as I know, I have both makes of F12's and the difference between them are quite noticable.
The layout is totally different, the Italeri Volvo F12 trucks has a cab made up of several pieces that you glue together and are single drive leaf sprung 2 axle trucks in 1:24th scale,  the Revell trucks has a one piece cab with separate roof and are leaf sprung dual drive 3 axle trucks in 1:25th scale, the rear suspension are of a six rod type on them.
AMT/Matchbox also did a Volvo F12 kit, that's also a 2 axle single drive like the Italeri kits but in 1:25th scale.

Nice work!  reminds me of 1982, when I got the same kit....

Indeed, Revell (truck of the world series). Italeri & Matchbox; F12s (&Globetrotters) are 3 totally different molds, all introduced back in 1981/82.
