1/14 Tamiya Scania R340

[Huggable]

After having built a few Scania R470/620s, I've decided to make a P340/380. The main difference between the R and P series in the cabin height, the R-cab, (being the premium body) is taller and offers more comfort and space.

I've modified an existing R-cab to a P-cab, and converted it to a low-roof. Main visual difference is at the upper front grill. The R-cab has 3 rows of horizontal ventilation, while the P-cab has only 2 rows.

That's some great custom work, especially the side intakes. Nice job!

[Huggable]

Thanks! The side intakes were cut into 5 pieces each, with 2 pieces discarded. Lots of work to trim them to fit! My group showcased 2 units of P-cab earlier today, will share pictures when they are ready.

One step closer... Now I need an Esso fuel tanker trailer.

Nice work.

I also did a P-model city delivery truck some time ago. Quite funny to customize the cabs.

[Huggable]

Thanks! Yeah the size/shape takes a little getting used to. Feel free to share your P-model truck too!

Well, that is much better than stock . Incredible work - does it have that SLU ?

[Huggable]

Thanks backtomyroots. Yes, it has the SLU installed. The demo video I've done was using the same chassis.

We just had a meet up yesterday in Singapore. You can check out some pictures below:

The embedded flash worked for me in post #8. Great photos, and I'm jealous of your places to drive the trucks!

Guess I need to visit Singapore someday.

Cheers,
