About the Scania Torpedo

Scania's T-series was the bonneted, or conventional, branch of its heavy truck range, with the engine positioned ahead of the cab. The layout gives these trucks a different silhouette from Scania's forward-control models. Factory production of the T-model ended in 2005, making the bonneted design a distinct part of Scania's truck history.

Later bonneted Scania trucks can also be specialist conversions. The supplied information mentions aftermarket conversion work by companies such as Vlastuin Truck- & Trailerservice in the Netherlands, but does not identify a conversion builder for this particular model.

About the Scania House Colours

This release is listed in Scania house colours rather than the livery of a haulage operator. That finish keeps the focus on the truck manufacturer and the Torpedo, Topline and tag-axle configuration.
