5 new truck transport combinations for de Rooy
21-09-2023
Driven by challenge
De Rooy Transport and WSI Models, two Dutch companies with a great history of collaboration, have once again joined forces. This time to develop a unique scale model of de Rooy's truck transport combinations. The model was specially made on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of de Rooy Transport.
De Rooy approached us with the question of replicating their truck transporter combinations as a scale model. Of course, we already build the IVECO Dakar trucks from de Rooy's fleet, but this was a challenge of a completely different order. But just like the slogan of the family business "Not possible, doesn't exist", that certainly applies to us too. We have sunk our teeth into it and the results are impressive.
“We are proud that we were allowed to develop this model. De Rooy is one of the leading transport companies in the Netherlands and their truck transport combinations are unique.”
Said Henry Mom, General Manager of WSI Models.
De Rooy's truck transport combinations are designed and produced in-house, are suitable for transporting three tractors and have a movable deck. The scale model is made of diecast and is very detailed.
A total of five models were produced, a DAF XD, XG, CF, an IVECO S-Way and a Volvo FH. The first models were presented last weekend during the anniversary. A limited number of all variants will also be available to collectors. The models can now be reserved at your WSI dealer.
