Nothing says 'Merry Christmas' like a 1x4-scale R/C big rig sleigh

Nothing says 'Merry Christmas' like a 1x4-scale R/C big rig sleigh

That there's a Santa Claus and an "elf" riding some sort of contraption behind a miniature big rig is intriguing enough. In reality, the downsized big rig is the story. Built by model maker Luca Bordin, the 1x4-scale Peterbilt 359 isn't a kit, it's made from scratch. As best we can tell from Google Translate, Bordin found detailed plans of the 359, then fabricated the body out of fiberglass, including the cabin, and attached it via springs to a twin-rail frame made of iron.
