Volvo F6 Beavertail Transport

[tiking]

This build came about by converting and scratch building, the old Volvo F6 Fire ladder kit. I had bought this a couple of years ago at a exhibition together with other second kits. I did not know what to do with the kit, until recent. So, it is no more a fire truck but an old beavertail machine transport carrier. I see many most enthusiast convert old and sometimes new trucks into other types of  themes to suit their intensions. This might carry a lot of load but ,we'll consider this a private farmer or truck company wanting to have easy access to transport small and medium size machinery to their destination without renting.

I was thinking of adding a Volvo F16 but not too sure.

Very nice and the weathering is super.
One thing I don't like with the Italeri Volvo F6-DAF-Renault-Iveco "Club Of Four" fire truck wich use the same cab is the funky looking fenders that looks noting like the real thing, and I think all have the Deutz Air cooled V6 wich only is correct for the Iveco.

Thank you for that. I was looking at both kits, Iveco and the Volvo fire ladder kits, and both are very very similar.
