Bought this lot from an antique dealer -not cheap but I can sell one money box bus to get back the cost of the whole lot.Spare parts very useful - driver now sits in a racer, 3 Tekno rims now on a Volvo Amazon and the turntable ladder is just what i needed for the truck i had already that had lost its ladder.Huskys all mint,2 of them for sale onwards,2 for my collection.Great to upgrade my UNCLE car + Batboat too :)

You do turn up some really nice models SMS88, but there is one model that brought back loads of memories for me, as soon as I saw it in the above picture, the Metallic green Corgi Land Rover, with the grey plastic towing arm and 'Whizzwheels'. It is exactly as mine was and I wish I still had it (along with all my other toys and models from my youth), and I have often thought about replacing all those that I used to have, but sadly it will take to long and cost too much. I have a couple of replacements that have come my way by other means, but still haven't taken the plunge fully, tending to concentrate on my Rolls-Royce stuff.

Could you do a couple of decent pictures just of the Land Rover for me, I'd appreciate that.

Regards,

GHOSTHUNTER.
