A lot of differences in both content and layout from the decal liveried prepro to the Tampo printed production model. Canopies are from the Hovis model. The cab roof is white as on production models but is a poor mix, almost translucent in places.

Re: Y27 foden Frasers' prepro.
I always have liked this issue very much.
Nice to see a preproduction model of it.
Another Sandown buy ?

It was collected at Sandown, but not purchased there. Below is an original metal wall advert from the late Sir William McAlpine's collection at Fawley Hill. The production livery is nearer this than the prepro oddly enough. Why would they trial something that wasn't as accurate?

That's nice Bob.
I like the lower roof on the trailer and the fact that the base has a different color and different sized wheels.
