It's an oilfield rig typically used in the middle east.

This is a Man Diesel tipper truck from a German builder.

This is a Daf N2500 tipper truck, and the original one is in the Daf museum. You will probably recognise a International Paystar 5000, and that is correct.

In the early seventies Daf had a short coöperation with International, where this is the only real result from. It's an International with a Daf motor and Daf badge.

Some 30 or so trucks were build. This is a 6x6, and the model is very nice.

One from the side. I like this model a lot, but i think i prefer it with the International badge on it.

The next one is also a familiar truck. It's a Ginaf, but the basic truck is an GMC/REO.

Ginaf is a small dutch truck builder that began with these conversions to road legal versions, but now build new trucks based on Daf components. They are in the special and ultra heavy class trucks, almost every truck is a one off.

You probably know them from the Dakar rally, were they race with the trucks with independent suspension.

This however is the start from Ginaf.

I always like if there is attention to detail, also for the accesseries around the track. This is a mobile firecontrolunit, complete with interior.
