Another Prime Mover, Trailer and Bulldozer set

Post by Wolfie Ginsburg »

The trailer of the top one, in common with most of its blue brethren is pretty scratched, has lost its delicate draw bar and the chocks are reproductions, but prime movers with tan trailers don't come along that often

These are in great condition Wolfie, these are lovely heavy toys and it's a shame the drawbars were a bit flimsy. I saw a set at Slough toyfair recently which was partially repainted without the ramps and the seller was asking a ridiculous price.

I have same - tan trailer version and has 2 original chocks, 1 almost bare metal and other with 50% paint on. Both chocks are tan as well but was lead to believe than all chocks were blue only. I also have green dozer on trailer - do you think this is correct or should it be the standard red / yellow version. This is how it came so presume for the time being it is correct.
