The tractor is a 1/24th DAF 95 from Italeri. Trye trailer is a container trailer, also from Italeri, that I modified with an open top as per my inspiration photo, I downloaded from the internet.
The container was filled with a lot of truck tyres donated from other modellers from around the world, literally.
Many thanks to all those modellers that sent me their leftovers.

Another stunning project. The weathering and overall composition of the work here is excellent, and I can spend ages studying the images and picking up the little details that just add so much (like the bag of bread rolls on the seat). Cheers, D

Charles, Just another incredible build. As Rowan said, at 1st I also thought that you posted a picture of the real tire hauler to use for your inspiration. But I soon enough figured it out that it's another one of your super detailed truck models. Joel
