M2a ice cream truck. What do you think?

Post by Butlercustom »

Found this one online. Curious what everyone thinks about it. You can see where the original decals or paint work was. But the current sticker almost looks like it should belong. I was wondering if anyone had ever seen anything like it?
Sorry about the big picture. Still haven't figured out how to get my iPad nit to do this.
There truck is in Canada at the moment.

Thanks
Greg

I think the Bristol Superfreighter referred to is an aeroplane. In full, it is the Bristol 170 Mk. 32 Superfreighter and tI believe this to be a decal from an Airfix kit. (I think they used to have descriptive decals like this to put on stands next to or underneath the completed model.)

Cool. Thanks for the input Idris and Ghosty. If it had been in good shape I might might had for it as a curiousity.
But it is in pretty rough shape.
