Time of year I'm afraid. He's severely disabled with lots of other problems. He was diagnosed with a brain tumour 5 years ago when he was 16 months old. Spend all my time caring for him now. Gave up work, sold my truck. Going to start of with simple skins I think. Something like P.B.KOK from Holland. Now, there's some lovely sounding V8 Scania's. Look them up on YouTube. Has 141, 143, 4 series and 5 series. :D

:P.B Kok skin looks really easy to do. As you are a fan of the old lorries, thought I would suggest having a look at them. Nice old lorries and this is a show your truck thread. :lol:

Looks that way buddy hehehehehehehe.

Good job it is not frosty. I used to know a guy, who drove lorries\trucks in the 1930's.

No heaters, so if the windscreen was freezing over.

He said you had to pee in a bottle, stop and pour it over the outside of the windscreen.

@Dogbert

Also known as 'Truckers Tizer' :lol: :lol:

Would explain why It was sold in South America. Found a MAN F2000 mod aswell with the same problem. Fine in the dry, rained and you couldn't see a thing. Wipers wouldn't clear windscreen. Shame really. Was a good mod.
