Post by numi »

Hi All,
Help needed with identification please. Kindly view pics and advise if this specimen is a genuine Lesney prepro.
Thanks in advance.

Genuine Lesney sourced model and here it is featured on a Lesney picture. Note the blemish in the paintwork on the driver's door panel.

Thanks Ghosty for your pic & post.
I had since removed pics & details due to fakers & fraudsters popping in. Perhaps our discussions on all rare early-base prepros should be moved into the "Cave" and made into a Sticky.
Its also one of the reasons why i added no further on the Ford Transit thread.

Thanks Tj,i await the owners response.
