STARTING MY £80k+ CUSTOM SCANIA V8 BUILD |

[@yorrickvanhethof5088]

As a Dutchie I most say, that I like what you doing. By going for Dutch style. But if I may make an suggestion? I would get rid of this diesel tank and make a custom one that fills the whole side. Or buy an bigger one. And than I would place the batteries in the A frame. Or for an second idea, put the air tanks under de A frame and the batteries in the rear bumper. And for another suggestion. I would fill up the space between the adblue tank and the fender with a special made tool box or a custom made adblue tank that fills the space between exhaust and fender. And how about an dutch style folding step ladder that slide out of the catwalk? I think the Crough T cab had it? I'm curious how this truck developed. Good luck.

[@Girts_164]

Yes big square old school fuel tank would look nice.

I wouldn't go as low as you have with the side skirts incase you get another job like the one with that tiny shepherd hut holiday home or if you get any farm jobs because you're going to be paying out for a lot of repair work on your side skirts.

[@Sancto-NL]

Exactly what i thought. I thought this was going to be a work truck. I guess he’ll be fine, but for sure that low wil be damaged quickly.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1505">25:05</a> should get 4 colour coated hella jumbo 220 in the splitter as well, maybe put four double burners down low on the side skirt either side

[@jobhoogeboom]

The sideskirts are awesome but the extensions are way to low, looks terrible

[@ADY99ish]

Agree. They do look awful and spoils the look of a Scania. Not my choice, that's for sure....

[@itzchrishd3618]

they look bad right now because its the only part sitting so low, i reckon its gonna look WAY better with the rest of the truck sitting at the same height

And you need double burners at the lower extensions of the side skirts. Take a look at Scania Lucifer from Kraemer. He has double burners at the bottom.

[@AndrewMcKittrick465]

Nice build Tim but I would leave the tank straps off for a cleaner look, paint the side skirts blue with a white pin strip all around them and the lower extensions, looking forward to update videos

[@ciderant]

Can't wait for Shaun's reaction to the truck being so low. It will be a recovery drivers nightmare

[@ADY99ish]

Agree. His silver Volvo looked crap and now he is doing the same to his Scania 650S.

[@ethanrichardson5139]

Honestly sometimes I think they need to make an easily removable splitter. like modern clips that blend in seamlessly but can be pushed to release the splitter

Do Blue anodized wheels ! And the gap between the rear wheel arches can be made into small storage boxes !

[@BradleyPenfold]

Can’t wait for it to be finished but to be honest Tim I think instead of just blue on the cab I think it should match the r series and the flat sides I think makes it look really boxy

[@Deesummer]

You can get Scania to program the truck to automatically raise back to ride height when you select drive or reverse.

[@adamcarson722]

Think your old Side skirts would look good on my S series (after getting them painted white) 😉

[@jason_xx9033]

Hey Tim, not to criticize but although I really like the low side skirts idea, I think you said in an older video that the S series will be a work truck. But with side skirts this low I don't know if it's gonna be the best of ideas. Anyways I hope it's gonna turn out to be an amazing truck when it's done! 😁

[@minitrundle]

If this is going to be a working truck, you might need to revisit the air suspension calibration just in case you need some extra clearance. Side skirts will be more costly than a splitter.

[@trainspotter446]

Love how low the side skirt is. But please leave the tank straps off. The smooth look would look so much better.

[@nickbealey9912]

Looks great cnt wait for it be done now ❤ I love the ideas u chuck around

[@aztinLeon]

Can't wait for the final result on the S-series, I'm sure it will look amazing! But maybe you should replace the original Scania rear fenders with some proper smooth and painted Parlok fenders, this would look a lot better imo.

[@karlgrimes7098]

Going to be another sick truck !

[@dontbullydabacon-hehehehaw]

tim just an idea have 1 stack plumbed up legaly but a change over valve before the emidsions and all that and plumb that up to split into 2 outlets which is the 2 stacks straight theough its hard to explain and ye probebly have ur own view on it

[@DaveyBoi_98]

bin the sideskirts of or make them abit small give you alittle more ground clearence

[@masonmcrobbie]

You should install a ghost immobiliser on the truck and set it to the air suspension so before starting the truck you will need the remote in your hand

[@hearson28]

Great video upload Tim can't wait for the truck to be finished it's gonna look good happy trucking 😊

[@AaronCable-tf9tt]

Great video tim. I think the s series is going to look great tho It looks like the s series which is going to be working will be less practical then the r series. If it's too unpractical, it might be worth putting the suspension a bit higher for driving, but I definitely can't wait to see the final result, but I think Dutch specs the right way to go with the s series maybe 4 series too but maybe keep that sort of standard but all 3 at a show would look good when there all done and maybe a bull bar with 4 square spots on the series

Tim, you really need to take a small piece of those side panels covering your fuel tanks because when you are driving along the main roads and the bottoms of those panels are going to get damage. you'll be driving on uneven roads especially in the country and bound to be a lot of potholes.
