Our show truck model this month is Johan Folmer’s Scania S520 6x2. This truck is a real eye-catcher on Dutch roads!
The Scania S520 with steered leading-rear axle made its début on the roads in 2020. Before the Scania was ready for work, it was given a thorough makeover. The modification of the truck’s exterior was done by Vlastuin Truckopbouw in collaboration with Pebo and B&D. ‘The idea behind the modification was to create a sleek working truck in keeping with the style of my previous truck,’ Johan tells us. The interior of this handsome truck was modified by Lagemaat Interieurs based in Scherpenzeel.

The sleek colours were sprayed on by EvE Spuiten in Ede. The colour combination of the new tractor matches the colours of the client, FALK Bouwsystemen. The special paint was done by MW Designs who also did the paintwork to satisfaction on some of Johan’s previous trucks. This time, the special paint features the FALK logo with sandwich panels that come together on the storage unit behind the cabin. A few pinstripes have also been added as well as a portrait of Johan’s grandparents as they meant a great deal to him.

On behalf of the WSI Models team, we would like to thank Johan for his trust in us and for our pleasant collaboration. The result of the model deserves to be seen and, as you’ve come to expect from us, the model is fitted with all accessories (such as air horns, a light box, and the custom cabinet on the back of the truck). This extremely handsome show truck is available as of now from your WSI dealer or from the WSI Shop!
