Thank you Ghosthunter for your fast help.
I didn´t thought about that I need two different labels - you did.

Hi,

with some help by Ghosthunter I brought the restauration of this Greyhound-bus to an end.

What a difference and those labels have really finished it off nicely, just shows what can be achieved with a little bit of homework. Glad I could be of some help Stephan.

Hi,

a new challenge has arrived today.
Hmm - hopefully I will manage to restore that one.

Hi,

today a friend sent me this lot.
I think I need your help to find out if there is something special within.

Hallo Stephan!
Nice lot. The red SF #75b-ferrari berlinetta is a good one.
Your Major-Pack M6a Tractor is the later issue in blue, (earlier versions are navy-blue) which is a bit harder to find. (Just my opinion)
You could check the RW #46b Pickfords Removal Van if it's the htf last casting with rearbumper. And is that gold or silver Trim on your RW 26a ERF cement mixer?

I hope I could help you a bit, maybe other members do it better than me :)
Good luck with restoring the Taxi!

Liebe Grüße,
Linus

It would be nice if the #40 'Tiger' Coach (bottom right of picture), had Grey Plastic Wheels!

I didn´t expect the Ferrari to be interesting - sadly condition is not that good.

The 46b is the one with rearbumper. The frontbumper has as I think never had any trim. In Nicks list all are with trim on the frontbumper.
