Nice shape overall :-) But are there 5L liftarms in red available? Also: No steering...?

Hmm nice feature for future small scale trucks with double tire setup :-)

These rims are way better, if you go for the classic look. Wonder, whose gonna do the cross version of the charger first....

Hmm strange, I was really sure about this, as I read an article years ago mention this feature explicitely. But when looking at the rear axle, a steering rod is missing...

Doesn't look bad :-) But the design behind the door looks little messy... maybe you could tinker around with this panel? Also the wheelbase seems to short for a F355?

The rear wheels were also steered in the 959 *edit: The first body version with the panels as spoiler looks better imho :-)

Tinkering around with some mechanics in the back: Is it allowed to cover them up with 2 non-technic panels? Sadly, nothing else fits :-/ --> 4215b

On this pic, it looks like a blue pin, is connecting the steering wheel (which is way too big...), which means no connection to the actual steering.

Maybe only suspension in the back... At first iI thought it is in the same scale as the 42096 (at least it seem to have the same wheels). And the Porsche did have indipendent suspension. But it looks like the track width of this Charger is narrower than the Porsche. Overall, I am not really impressed with this model, the "coke-bottle" design of the silhuette doesn't really come through, at least in this pic. Also somehow the wheels really don't match the classic charger look. Maybe if the B-Model is the modified charger from the F&F trailer, then they will fit better.

@Jim I am really looking forward to this contest! :-) Are MOCs of real cars allowed? Or maybe moc(k)ups of real cars like the blue Dodge Charger car in the 42098?

According to Promobricks, the set release dates given at Nuremburg Toy Fair are the following: 42107 (Ducati) - June 2020 42111 (F&F Charger) - 27.04.2020 --> Maybe postponed...? 42112 (Mixer) - August 2020 42113 (Osprey) - August 2020 42114 (Volvo A60H) - August 2020 42115 (Lamborghini) - June 2020

Hats off to you, Nico :-) I deal with braiding machines in my job and this really is impressive. Especially as your solution for the discontinuous process done with the tracks and pins like a a punch card in older jacquard machines. Sometimes in the future I will try my best to do a MOC of a braiding machine myself. Can you do a Wardwell Braider next? ;-)

Thanks. The airtank is rather cheap in contrast to 3 of the these cylinders *crying*....

I have a question about pneumatics: I'm currently building a model where I can't avoid long pneumatic hoses. Does it make sense to combine a pneumatic pump driven by an L-motor with an airtank or should I go without the airtank?

Wheelbase seems right in the stripped version and to short on the version with the finishing. But again, just astonishing work. The front resembles the original Scania so well. :-)

Panel 17&18 working so good here :-) Looks great!

You are too early for the upcoming technical contest of Jim :D Very nice build, the roll cage looks so cool!

Then maybe first try with the 68s as twin wheels in front and 62s rear steering wheels in the back?

Hmm this would surely result in sort of modern art than technic builds :D

Nice build :-) Do you maybe have two more wheels of this size (the 68.8 x 24?) to fit on the front axle? Would surely look even better ;-)

If the technic department would look to the creator experts, maybe we could have both just like they did with the regular and tuned Mustang? I know it's way harder to swap the place of the engine, but not impossible...

Let us hope it is still the case, because the F&F-movie has been delayed from May 2020 to April 2021...

Oh man I should read the title before posting...

Great little build, could be an official model :-)
