Good point Joe.
If any forum member here wants to buy the model, I am happy to let my manservant, "Maramaduke" have an afternoon off, once a fortnight to come round to your house and do the Honnors as mentioned by "Tinman" in the previous post, just give him a cup of tea and a biscuit and he'll be happy with that.

Re: Hot tip offs
I think that has been detailed by a previous owner. It should have knobbly 11x24 wheels and these look like 45 treads. Also the trim looks as if it was brushed on.

Re: Hot tip offs
Yes, that trim is pretty funky looking. It does lean hard towards owner detailing.
It might be time to start my "Bucket List."
Re: Hot tip offs
Now that you've pointed it out I have to agree that it might be super-detailing. (On the other hand, there does not appear to be any other detailing.)nickjones wrote:I think that has been detailed by a previous owner.

Re: Hot tip offs
