In every lot...

Post by ford_a_30 »

On another thread Johnboy pointed out that every lot he buys, big or small, always seems to have a BMC1800 in it.
I would have to agree and, there are a couple models that always seem to pop up on me too. These include the #60 site hut truck for RW and a whole bunch of Stretcha fetchers in superfast lots.
What other models are you finding in what seems like every lot you buy?

Although I seem to get quite a few BMCs (and door-less ISOs) I must be more into trucks as my most common finds are RW Ford D Refuse Wagons, Husky SD Refuse Wagons and SF #2 Mercedes Trailers

Hi Ewan, nice to see you back. Yes of course, I forgot about the Mercedes trailers and I always seem to pick up lots of 30c rw cranes.

For me it is the #50 & 51 John Deere Tractor and Tipping Trailer. How many tractors do ya really need, anyway?

Not every auction lot but most carry cases or vintage beater boxes that I come across contain a 13d BP wrecker and or a 14d Iso Grifo - both more numerous than 41c Ford GTs here!

Thanks Johnboy, it's nice to be back and rather exciting to be starting again from pretty much scratch :D
I'd forgotten the 30c cranes - I get lots of them too.....

Ain't it the truth? I'm likely to develop carpal tunnel syndrome from all of the wrist rolling I do with Faun cranes and still NONE without that silly brace! :x
