DAF 380 ATI Tractor

[tiking]

This is my first 1 / 24 scale truck ever.This is a DAF 380ati Space cab, an old kit. The kit went together quite well except for some minor issues with battery box, which did not fit well. I also had problems with the painting that caused a rough surface on the passenger side. But besides that, it was a fun kit to build. Hope you all like it. I'm still adding little details every now and then.

Now this is one fine looking Euro Rig. The weathering gives it life and I love the chipped paint on the fuel tank. Great build.

Thanks gents. Glad you both like it. I love my vehicles dirty. I did 1/35 modern armor before this so dirt takes first place.

Your experience with armor weathering shows ... that is gorgeous!

Thanks gents. I'm a huge fan of Euro trucks. In my eyes, they are the best looking trucks.

Thanks. This kit, I found on Ebay. There are some on Ebay if you look now.

This is one of those models that has that 'just right feel' to it. Your weathering is first rate and I love the setting! This is a well used, not abused tractor... I'm not a big fan of the single-screw DAF tractors (They just look odd to me...) but this tandem job sure has my number. I just looked, there're none on eBay right now, but I'll keep looking. I think I just found my first Euro-Truck project.
