The clock is a-ticking (Oh no it isn't! Oh yes it is!
) and nominations close at midnight on Friday (or, more likely, when I get up on Saturday morning), so hurry, hurry, hurry!

I must confess, I am a RW addict but being a Rolls Royce collector, also quite happy with this find; my SF contribution, a narrow wheels 24C Silver Shadow:

My entry to the non-Lesney pre 70 category is my Lone Star dropside artic with the first style tractor unit. It's particularly important from my point of view as it backs up the theory I had based on a catalogue picture in Geoffrey Ambridge's book that the first of these LS artics came with this style of cab, not just a few Tankers in Military gift sets. Hopefully this means there are plenty more to be found - I have only seen 4 and I have 3 of them.

Thank you Gerrit for the additional pictures.
I wanted to see if you had small or large wheels...they are the large version as they fill the arches nicely. The smaller wheels are uncommon.
