The above Scania R620 is being completely converted to flat bed wagon and drag for carrying straw bales, tractors or what ever else you can carry on a flat bed (that is very a lot). The driver will be the one particular and only Will Pringle, yes he of other notable custom truck fame. As you can see the truck started life as a hydraulic loader and was bought from properly known Dutch truck dealer VSB Groep. 



Over to Mr Pringle to inform us all we need to know

“VSB stripped and fitted the new facelift grill and it had been to Steves Location (truck customiser in Holland) for the fitment of the changeover valve and pipe perform also side pipe. Then James Burrow did the fitting of streamline corners extra lighting headboard roof rack and ladders,also rear bumper! The body was made by Euro Axles at Stoke on Trent. The chassis was extended by Northwest Commercials at Preston. The full pain2rk was done by Ian Bone & sons and of course the airbrush perform was completed by Matt the painter. All the electrics carried out by Kev Larkin. After completed at Bones’ it is going Coles Customs for complete interior rebuild and the fabrication of lockers, tank wraps and various other tiny tweaks.”








What a alter from how she began life back in 2008, a diverse nation and a various way of life by all accounts 

“Yeah I know, it is originally from Norway and I consider it was a fridge motor. VSB had just finished putting the cable lift side skirts bulbar and everything on it when we went to appear at it in Holland.”






The truck is nearing completion and does now appear close to what the completed show ready post will appear like. Being aware of a small bit about Will in confident he’ll be undertaking all he can get all the tiny touches done to the truck that will make it a cut above most of the rest. I look forward to seeing it when it comes out if the Coles Customs workshop. I will do an additional update as and when it seems and just before it hits the road to claw back some of the expense of creating such an awesome functioning truck.

This Mercedes Notion Gathers Solar and Wind Power Making use of Its Paint

Daimler is in attack mode in China. The company has invested $ 140 million in a new analysis and improvement center there, the heart of which is an advanced design studio that will be taken more than subsequent year by Hubert Lee, who at the moment heads the studio in Carlsbad, California.

With this investment, the organization aims to catch up with Audi and BMW, and the Vision G-Code concept vehicle is a symbol of this charge forward. At very first glance, the compact hatchback seems unspectacular its soft shape and subdued lines fit in effectively with Daimler’s current styling language as defined by the C- and S-classes. At 161.4 inches extended, 59.1 inches tall, and 74.8 inches wide, it is sized just like today’s popular compact crossovers.

Standing on 21-inch wheels with carbon-fiber spokes, the G-Code is fitted with an electrically powered roof rack and LED headlights that extend and move like the lens of a compact camera when activated. The daytime running lights mimic the shape of a “G” like on the 2012 Ener-G-Force idea, but inverted.

It may look like it would match correct into today’s site visitors, but the G-Code is far more visionary than you might think. The front is dominated by a fake “grille” that makes use of lighting effects to inform bystanders about which mode of propulsion is presently in use. It is supposed to remind us of the starship Enterprise’s “warp drive,” says Daimler. Even so, Daimler’s notion is powered by a front-mounted hydrogen-fueled internal-combustion engine and a rear electric motor.

At standstill, the grille is lighted blue. When driven on electrical energy only, the blue light moves inwards, and in hybrid mode, the color turns purple. In Hybrid Sport mode, the illumination is bright red, and the “stars” move outwards. It’s not a warp drive, and it is about as realistic. Daimler hastens to assure us that no hydrogen IC engine is close to series production.

The G-Code can take in power by means of the most curious techniques. The paint doesn’t only function like a solar cell, it can also make use of wind energy. And the power from the movements of the hydraulic chassis can be harnessed as effectively.

The interior is probably even a lot more futuristic. You enter through normal front and “suicide” rear doors—there is no B-pillar—that can be activated by a smartphone after ensconced, the entire dashboard moves into place, the steering wheel unfolds, and the air vents magically seem. A lot of smartphone functions can be displayed on the dash.

Daimler speaks of “quite fantastical aspects” of the G-Code, and talks about how it introduces suggestions that even “our grandchildren may possibly take into account state of the art.” Let’s hope the refreshingly unaggressive aesthetic makes it into series production before that.
