FDNY Schlingmann HLF 20/16 Fire Truck

[modeltruckmafia]

This is a Revell Germany Schlingmann HLF 20/16. After 9/11 a good portion of the FDNY Fleet was destroyed and Quite a few Fire truck manufactures donated vehicles to the FDNY, so I build this truck as a what if Schlingmann and Mercedes sent a truck over to the FDNY. The decals are from chimneyville and painted with Tamiya paints. I added some interior detail including a center computer/radio console and scratchbuilt head setsfor the driver and passanger. I added a jotto desk and laptop for the passanger seat and pizza, walkie talkies, first aid kit, flashlights. an ax and some girl magazines in the crew compartment. I also added led lighting in the cab so you can see the interior better. On the outside i modified the box alittle and added an extension to the scene lights to get it up above the truck
