Very nice - your supernatural powers to find oddities/rarities reminds me of an old TV series - the Champions

Were you by any chance raised in the himalyas by an ancient tribe of spiritual mystics? :lol: :lol:

Thanks Motorman and Sebastian, my secret it out. Just hope no one follows those foot prints :D
Might even find an old caveman lurking about.

Jason, how long ago was your website facelifted.

Another thing, your name is Coker is it not. Nick has it as Roper in the oops! section here...http://www.vintagebritishdiecasts.co.uk/oops6a.htm

Hi Ghosty
Website had a facelift about 2 months ago I think probably more. Still not done much though, need to list some models for sale but it all takes time.
Yes it should be coker, but I am not to worried.

I'm sure he would have. So many casting differences - not only the base lettering but also the axle mounts and the missing platform for the labels. It feels like they redid the whole thing. Thanks for showing this!

No problem at all, its amazing what can change in the early development stages. As an engineer I would love to go back and see the decisions and this put in action.

Most of my 62c models were together today so I thought I would get a picture for Kwackers Gallery.
