Isn't the engine in the first Volvo FH a D120D or similar to it? Because that one is available in resin. I have allready mounted it in a '93 FH that I still need to finish. André

Rick, the ones I've got are made by J.C. Lescrenier. These are cheaper and come with more parts including a gearbox. I bought mine at : www.modelmakershop.com but they don't seem to have them anymore. I bought two for alomst the price of one by M&G.

After two more plaster en sand sessions and a third coat of primer I'm finally satisfied with the result. Now the hood and fenders need some attention. Especially the small fenders that attach to the cab are rather badly cast. I'm starting to think that the cab wasn't even that difficult with the work that is needed on those cab fenders. But not impossible, so we will soldier on. André
