Yes, there it is, the 'Penis' word...quite harmless really but unfortunately it has been misinterpreted the wrong way by some forum members. What "Kwackers" was actually referring to was a decades old 'By-Law' in Zoological environments, but he forgot to type it in it's fullest form, so it came out as...'Penisized' which when presented in it's fullest form simply means...

Have I got this right- When kwakers was asking "are the raised outlines of the trunk considered anything as exciting sounding in the medical world Greg?? (Penisized Perhaps?? LOL) " it was in fact a zoological reference presumably about an elephant and nothing to do with a Ford Cortina?

Back on topic: I've seen one BPW Dunlop van and it's in a Canadian collection. I could find no signs of tampering and I consider the model to be authentic. That said, it's the only one I've ever had in hand and seen in person. I have seen a couple of others but they both showed signs of tampering (i.e. I told the owners they were fakes). The owner of the one I judged as authentic does not participate in online forums and sadly has no interest to begin doing so.

For Kwakers, sometimes a thread gets quiet all on its own and I see this as no fault of yours.
It might be time to start my "Bucket List."

Please use a web hosting site (like photobucket) to store pictures so you can post them here, using attachments makes it hard to view the pictures when you have to scroll to see them. Seeing comparisons of models is hard to see with attachments too.

Here is a nice lady putting her 'BP' decals on nice and straight, but I bet as soon as the Camera was turned away, she went like the clappers to get finished so she could get home for Coronation St... :lol:

One cannot do much with all the monies in this world but can do much more if he strives toward contentment.
