MBXPilot's Lesney Collection
Re: MBXPilot's Lesney Collection
Thanks guys!!
Here is my last box to arrive right now (until I find something else to buy haha). Got these very nice regular wheels off of a Facebook group for $14. They are all upgrades, the Greyhound bus is definitely the nicest one I have now. Happy to get the lid for the DAF truck as well. My new big project once I get a workbench set up again is to get a mold making kit and start making my own spare parts. So I'm trying to have a supply of at least one of as many commonly missing plastic parts as I can! Off to a good start I think.

And another catalog I didn't have. This was a pleasant surprise. It's MUCH nicer than it looked in the pics, near mint really. $5 shipped.

Got a stinkin good deal in the mail today!! In the photos on eBay, it looked like the normal gloss red Jag, but when I got it, turned out that it's the rarer metallic red version, and near mint! For about $8 shipped.

Re: MBXPilot's Lesney Collection
That is a shame about the glazing damage. What are your intentions, full restoration maybe.

Yes I'm going to be keeping an eye out for a beater with donor glass. I've always wanted to do some sort of custom with this casting, so we'll see!
