Prepro 7c Ford refuse truck
2014 has started with a bang for me, Red cab with a grey plastic base . Also with all the early features, and in pretty good condition.

Still cannot believe the condition as well, very happy.Jason

Re: Prepro 7c Ford refuse truck
Congratulations, that is very nice indeed
Don't want to argue but I'd rank the condition well above 'pretty good' too!

Dies it have a grey loader as well?.
It looks so much better with the grey base as these had a white painted grille panel in real life.
Great find Jason.

Hi Jason
really very nice model. It seems that you do not waste time collecting the standard models and you collect only PREPRO.

Thank you Antonin, i was very lucky with this one as I did think it was a repaint.Diecast wrote:Hi Jason

I have always wanted to see the very early version with no rear brace and no corner brace but I never expected it to be on a prepro.

Re: Prepro 7c Ford refuse truck
This is the model Jason showed me at Windsor today, so am very privelidged to have held it and while not my speciality, I was happy to confirm it was special and is likely to be very early production or 'pre-pro' and yes, in the hand, it is in very good condition, another good score by Jason.
