 The Scania 3 Torpedo made by WSI in 1/50 Scale measures 5 7/8 inches long, 2 7/8 inches tall, and 2 1/4 inches wide.  

It is made mostly of diecast metal
with only a few plastic parts.

Wow...look at the detail on the engine!

It also has nicely replicated windshield wipers, mirrors, non-slip tread on the steps, and realistic handles on the hood.

You can also see the nicely detailed interior through the clear windows.

The top of the cab is decked out with air horns, spotlights and a storage rack.

On the drivers side, detailed within the casting, is an access ladder that leads up to the top of the cab.

The back of the truck has some great features like the coiled air hoses, tilting fifth wheel, and photo etched heat shields over
the mufflers and exhaust pipes. 

If you look closely, you can see the drive wheels have a different hub than the
non-drive wheels. 

Some more great features are the wheel covers along with the Scania mud flaps.

The chassis is nicely replicated with the steerable front axle, along with the transmission and drive shaft that leads to the single differential.

The drive wheels and non-drive wheels each have their own unique tire tread design.

This WSI model #13-1023 has several great features like the plastic lens head lights & fog lights along with the  Scania & Topline graphics...to name just a few... that sets it apart from other manufacturers.
