Hello all, glad to see some activity back in the forum. I've missed the interaction, and pictures, not that I'm a huge contributor. The Miura was the one that caught my attention, it's a little more play worn than I would like but you get what you pay for. There are some really good examples in here...

They all look in very good nick, but one in particular caught my eye. Ironically they were advertised as late 60’s hot wheels lot despite being in a Matchbox case. More pics shortly as the seller is less than a KM away.....

Thanks for the photos!

I'm quietly contemplating what appendage, or which if more than one was required, I would give up to have these in my collection.

Lovely, lovely models.

Cheers
Dave

Agreed, erasers are surprisingly effective in cleaning decades of dust, dirt and finger oil off old cardboard.

Getting to know the pressure and speed of usage to avoid damage should be done cautiously!

I've just been concentrating on boxed models recently...

You do not realize how many types of aircraft Dinky have made until you see such a collection. Fabulous and thanks for showing them alltogether Dave. Hi Kevin I haven’t even scratched the surface, see links on British and French production below, the pre war gift sets are ones I’d love to own, pric...

That is a beautiful collection of Dinky aircraft. Now you need a nice 749 Avro Vulcan to compliment your collection! Thanks for sharing! Scott Agreed Scott, just need to scrape together the likely $2k purchase price and have you on spotter duty there in Canada. As with most “pinnacle” models I’m un...
