Hello Dave!
My guess is that you bought the lot for the orange crawler at the bottom of the box under the car Transporter. It looks to be a beauty. I hope the back half turns out as nice as the front half appears to be!
Here’s hoping I got it right!
Kurt
Happy hunting!

The GT 40 with pale yellow base, thin wheels and the large arches is a nice find as these are not too common.

That's a nice box of goodies there Dave and a bonus to have the tracks on the 'dozer. It would be good to see some more photos of the others if you get time.

There is a couple of early Corgi toys in the box such as the yellow Aston Martin DB4 and possibly the red Land Rover has a tinplate canopy in yellow.

I also see a Corgi Silver Shadow with take off wheels, a Corgi Bentley Continental, a Models of Yesteryear Y-15 Silver Ghost and a Lone-Star Silver Cloud which would be a nice find if it has the black tyres.
