Model Truck Decals 1/87
Decal Kit Scania 'Black Amber' scale 1/87
Scania R Black Amber
Designed by Svempa, born Sven Erik Bergendahl, the most famous truck decorator in the world.
"Black Amber" is the name of a tractor with a truly exclusive set-up, based on Scania R, with a V8 engine. Amber is a particular variety of fossil resin which is used in its transparent brown variant to package precious jewels. Black Amber is the even more precious variety and its bronze tint gives the truck a touch of great refinement.
But let's get to the details: the flames that start from the muzzle and the exhaust are not airbrushed as one might think, but made with a carbon fiber film.
The mirror caps, window frames and door handle frames are gloss black, while the rims are matt black, with a chrome channel and a thin amber line. The grille, the cab steps and the walkway that covers the tractor frame are also black. There is no shortage of mirror chrome: the wheel bolts, the access steps to the catwalk, the moldings and the V8 emblems on the side skirts.
Seat upholstery is matte black leather, dark amber V8 logo and orange stitching.
The steering wheel has two inserts in dark wood, in tone with the bodywork.
Above the bed, a plate with the "Black Amber" logo shows the number of the specimen; the power indication, on the other hand, is fixed on the engine tunnel. There is also an excellent audio system with DVD player and a retractable navigator.
The LED lights come in three colours: white for the work area, amber for the profiles of the skirts and red for the fenders.
In Italy, Black Amber should arrive at the end of this month; from the Casa let it be known that, given the extremely limited numbers, preference will be given in order of booking.
