I now have a new aim in life: to collect as many model team sets as I can.

I have recently bought a 5563 for half price, and it is amazing. Not only are
the pieces brilliant for town building, but the level of detail on the actual
model is excellent. I just love the air intake pipe. I think it's my favourive
bit of the model.

It has so many possibilities for conversion and motorisation. I have already
converted it to right hand drive, and motorisation, a trailor etc. could be on
their way (if I don't run out of pieces).

Just one question: What is the spoiler for at the back? Does it have a
puurpose on the real thing, or is it just for looks? TIA

If only I bought the Black Cat when I had the chance...

Mike

(...) Well my guess is that 5563 Diesel Rig is a racing truck... And what race car/truck is complete without a spoiler? :) Bryan (24 years ago, 8-Oct-00, to lugnet.modelteam)

(...) There are still plenty of opportunities to buy it on e-bay but expect to pay a premium for this very popular set. Kerry (24 years ago, 9-Oct-00, to lugnet.modelteam)
