Hessel Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 That's a good looking oldie. How come you build these European truck when you have such beautiful US trucks over there? Hessel the Netherlands (where this DAF was 'born')

Yahshu Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 With the 1st pic I thought it was a real truck, very nice.
Hessel Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I thought it was time for a change. Well stranger things have happened. I only build US style trucks . This includes Australian and New Zealand ones. This one looks really good. thanks, Hessel
Jim B Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Nice job on the DAF & trailer. Any plans for a load?
camaro73 Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 Thanks guys! Not sure about a load for it yet.
Madd Trucker Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) disreguard my post in your on the bench thread I like it it looks good I even build Euro rigs Edited March 11, 2013 by Madd Trucker
kilrathy10 Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Outstanding build...Really looks good....I have quite a few Euro rigs in my collection....Mainly because they seem to go on sale more than the US ones, but I do like the way cabovers are designed and built....I'm partial to Scanias and Mans, but this DAF looks awesome....
Simon Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Lovely outfit, it's a very long time since I saw a Daf like that. It's unusual to see a 6x4 in the UK these days too, which makes me glad to see them in model form. Is that the Revell heavy duty trailer?

Kostas Parchas Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 A DAF 3300 in Texas???????? WOW!!! Brian you have done a great job on this one. You did it justice. Congratulations!!! Many of these units (rigid 6x2 or 6x4 & traktors 4x2) 3300/2800 even a few 2600 are still making money here in Greece. Kostas.
