well its been a long time since i bought a king size model...but i couldnt pass this up for 7 dollars

Brad Are those bullet holes in the nearside glass??? This has been used in a shoot out!!

Now this is what I should be collecting, wrecker and recovery trucks, cos' that was my job until quite recently, but amazingly, I don't think I have more than two models and neither of them are Matchbox!

The condition of models of wrecker trucks should match the real thing, so yours Brad, is just great, possibly a little too clean and tidy and yeah, bullet holes in the side windows, I've seen real trucks with damage like that, wonderful stuff, I am gonna get me one of those next year, that's for sure.

That's a good solid looking truck. I do like some of the Kings, especially the earlier ones.

No way Ghosty!!!!! NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,

I had you playing Chess and Croquet, and counting the Pheasants in the Hanging shed, having light banter with Ned the handy man, spending that Inheritance on clapped out old Rollers and waiting for your Peerage to the House of Lords to land on your lap over Criossants and Champagne one fine Sunday morning.

Please dont spoil my fantasy!!!!

Some wreck trucks

My favourite King Size, I must have bid on about 20 of them this year and lost every single one - top of my list for 2014.
