I saw the top half of that picture and it looked like someone had taken the truck home and parked it in his garden while he had a cup of tea...Make you wonder how much sugar he uses...But no its on the road and what a beauty. :D

Those decals were a real bitch to make and you can't believe how many of those little tins of Humbrol paint it took to finish it off  :o

Did Eric (from Holland) help out with the restoration - he seems to be very active on EBay at the moment! :lol: :lol:
