May 27, 20186 yr Author @Milan Yes, only the roof and some minor improvements in stability of the front. To make it to a sleeper i have to increase the length behind the doors. This point is still the daycab from the Dino Edited May 27, 20186 yr by efferman

This point is still the daycab from the Dino Oh, my bad, I thought it is a bit longer, and that you are aiming at the sleeper version, like this, marked one: If it is a Day cab, then your first cabine with low roof (before the one posted on this page) is closer to the daycab.
May 27, 20186 yr Author @Milan the daycab was for the suction excavator. The marked cab is for something different and will be 1 or two studs longer.
May 28, 20186 yr I like the black front grille and white bumper and fenders. But this high roof for a day cab does not exist, so I prefer the original one, unless you make the cab longer as Milan stated.
May 28, 20186 yr How firmly are you set on the old Scania cab? If you like Scania trucks, there is a new generation out there so why don't you try building that one? To kind update your truck, keep it modern and good looking (although there is a very small difference between the two, only the lines are updated and modernized). Maybe something like this: Just a thought.
May 28, 20186 yr Author The old series looks better and sorry, the low entry version is shocking me every time when i see it. Ugly as Hell
June 3, 20186 yr Author second prototype for the hooklift The ouitrigger parts should work as replacement for the printed parts, Even when the neccessary romm will increase Â
June 14, 20186 yr Author only a small lowboy under stress. the frame is two studs high and 4 panels long
June 23, 20186 yr Honestly I do not know what to complain about, it look really nice. Pitty that my mocs are 1:15 or 1:18 scale so I can not borrow your design  just can be used as inspiration
June 23, 20186 yr Question: those 1x2 and 2x2 curved panels that you have on the side above the door and on the back of the cabin, have you tried using them on the front above the sun shield instead of 1x1 and 1x2 flat slopes? Edited June 23, 20186 yr by pagicence
June 24, 20186 yr is the steering wheel at the wrong spot??? just kidding!! looks great!!! There is an american company called peterbilt http://www.peterbilt.com/ and Idk if you have done any models based from this company.. they got some cool trucks!!Â
June 24, 20186 yr Author @pagicence, the upper row of cheesecakes has a half stud offset to the lower one. with the curved slopes i would have two holes in the front roof. @sirslayer, i love the 359 Â edit: Cab Parts ordered: 1757 parts for 174 euro excluding shipping Edited June 24, 20186 yr by efferman
