KS Hook Variation used on 2C 12A. 14A and others
While examining a new arrival I noted the hook on the K12A Foden Breakdown truck was different than that of another K12A truck. This hook had a hole going all the way through the hook, while the other one had just a hole in one side. Knowing several models share this same hook I got out what I had n...

Re: K10B Scammell Pipe Truck
The square hook variation was a BIG surprise. As many years as Lesney used the hook and eye combination it is amazing that they were still toying around with the design in 1967.

Re: K21C Tractor Transporter

Re: K22A Dodge Charger
As far as beauty of a model regardless of which series I would have to put the K22a Dodge Charger as one of my top 10. I believe the color of this model is one of the main attributes to it beauty.
BTW LOVE the PP Nearlymint! SWEET!!!!

Production numbers Regulars, King Size, MOY
Having worked for a large manufacturing company most of my life I am quite aware that production numbers (amount produced) were most important. Were any production numbers ever saved on the models produced by Lesney during there existence? And if so what were the numbers on each model. At the compan...

Re: K22A Dodge Charger
Charlie,
If I'm not mistaken there is also a version with light yellow interior. But It may have been a PP.
