Saturday June 24th during my visit at MINITRUCK 2023, in Houten at the booth from Theo Gijsbers, I picked up the technical scale drawing of the MOL F6566 6x6 Oilfield Truck made by Joop van der Touw.

Joop van der Touw has created unique “Artistic Impressions” of trucks from the past or that are still driving around today with his unparalleled technical craftsmanship and drawing skills over many years. But unfortunately Joop van der Touw passed away a few years ago.

Before the death of Joop van der Touw, Theo Gijsbers was allowed to take over all his drawings and copyrights, which is why his legacy can still be viewed and even available to enthusiasts via  www.TruckScaledrawings.com. The trucks are drawn to perfection in different scales and can be printed in various sizes for a modest fee.

The MOL F6566 6x6 Oilfield Truck drawn by Joop also served as the basis of the custom scale model that I now have in my collection and you will understand that this completes the story. Highly recommended!
