K 167 Ford Transit
Posted: Sun Feb 09, 2014 7:08 pm
I know this is outside the era of the database but some readers might like to see prepros and colour trials
The proposed Ford Transit was illustrated in the 1990 collectors and dealers' catalogues in red
I have an example of the red one that was used for the illustration. Probbably because they couldn't agree licencing rights the red Suchard Transit was never issued
I know my photography is rubbish but I didn't reverse the photo of the ambulance - the lettering on the front of the toy is reversed to mimic the way some ambulance services accommodate the fact hat the sign is mist often read by a driver in his rear view mirror
Made in Macau it was released in this lilac Milka livery
It was later made in China in this bright Surf & Sun livery
and also released in the Construction mini seriesnumbered as CS-02
The Ford was also issued as an ambulance as K 168
