Thanks Alex, I have just been checking and I have decal and label for the Ford Galaxie but do not have it noted for the Mercury.

I will look through my archive of photos as I know I have one somewhere, question is where, I have had 2 PCs over the years pack up but have kept the hard drives as they were still ok so might take a bit of digging through to find it, will let you guys know when I do.

Hi Jason,
No decals on my 59 Mercury Fire Chiefs either. I have either paper labels, or 1 mercury with no labels at all.

Cheers
John

Hi John,
I quite like this model and especially if the model was made with narrow wheels, bit hooked on narrow wheel models but not quite sure why.

As I told you, I really like the SF59 Casting.
It is one of my favourite Matchbox cars and I think the one with the most variations I have, here are some impressions of the 59 fleet...
