first of 2014 & some
Re: first of 2014
not sure about the 5d I would assume the LONDON TRANSORT decales are an addition by a previous owner
some more lone stars the corvette is thanks to a tip by J and was missing the doors and windscreen ,replaced with the ones from the beater I picked up earlier not perfect but at least this ones complete
#75 with silver trim #43 with dd wheels , never noticed these had larger rear wheels before ,no labels but it does have light amber glass which was a bonus
# 23c with black wheels , a Britains Lilliput Austin champ , and lastly a Budgie Fire Chief

Re: first of 2014
I have a 56a trolleybus fitted with the same 'London Transport' decals, I'm pretty sure they are from the Yesteryear Y-3 Tram.

Re: first of 2014
thanks gentlemen
the caravan is a spare and I'm up for a sensible offer or swap if anyone is interested
I never thought the extra decals could be YYs thanks Nick
and here's a couple more new additions
the trolley bus with black poles looks good to me I was concerned about the poor paint finish on the roof it looks as if it has missed part of the paint process and is like the over spray inside , I have another like this with red poles

Re: first of 2014
The bus looks the part with the decals Reg. I've had a look at my Y3's and they are a little different on close inspection. I don't know if Lesney used more than one type of decal though. These LT decals were very popular with customiszrs and bus/rail enthusiasts years ago and I have seen them on a number of Matchbox buses before. It would be good to see what other think.nickjones wrote:I have a 56a trolleybus fitted with the same 'London Transport' decals, I'm pretty sure they are from the Yesteryear Y-3 Tram.
