--A plastic model assembly kit that reproduces the F-12 trailer head produced by Swedish car maker Volvo from 1977 to 1994 on a 1/24 scale.
[About the actual vehicle]
――The F-12 is a heavy-duty truck produced by the Swedish automobile manufacturer Volvo, which appeared in 1977.
――It first appeared with the F-10 in the F series that was born as a successor to the N series from 1977 to that time.
――The numbers represent the displacement, and the F-12 is a model equipped with a 12-liter engine.
――The in-line 6-cylinder engine was equipped with a turbocharger with an intercooler, producing high power.
――In addition to being equipped with an adjustable steering wheel, the noise level inside the cab is kept low, and shock absorption equipment for the front and doors is firmly incorporated, and a large storage space and a comfortable bunk bed are adopted.
――We were the first to realize a comfortable and safe cabin equipment for the driver, and became the leader model of the cab over trailer head at that time.
[About the model]
-The model is a plastic model assembly kit that reproduces the trailer head of Volvo, a Swedish car maker known worldwide on 1/24 scale, F-12.
--Among the F-12s produced since 1977, we have modeled a type with a low roof cabin.
――The total length of the finished product is 244mm, and it is a responsive kit that has been reproduced in full detail from the engine to the chassis.
――The cab-over type cabin not only expresses its design, but also the interior such as seats and dashboard.
--The low roof type cabin style is firmly reproduced.
-In addition, a wealth of accessory parts such as the roof and front visor, as well as equipment on the roof and ladders installed on both sides of the cabin are installed.
――Of course, it is possible to tilt up even after completion, and underneath it, the in-line 6-cylinder engine is reproduced in detail, including the turbocharger and other auxiliary equipment.
――Furthermore, I'm looking forward to waving my arms to improve the details. In addition, the chassis frame, drive train and suspension are modeled as they are.
――It is a fulfilling kit that truck model fans cannot miss.
――Italeri's 1/24 truck series also has various trailer kits.
――I'm looking forward to combining them to create a dynamic European trailer truck.
