Nice score, I like buying lots too, predominantly Dinky. The luck of the draw and unusual finds raise the odds.
Would love to see some shots of this lot out of the box!
Lot's I get I post on another forum which holds photo's of all my acquisitions, but photobucket link below, you'll have to go a few pages in to see some of the best lots.

Just noticed we joined the forum about 4 hours apart! You've been a little more active than me though!
Cheers

Nice 'DINKY TOYS' POLICE box in the Ninth picture down. The RED top light is correct for this model as the real POLICE boxes in Scotland had the Red lamp, while those in England had the White lamp, and of course Dinky also made that version.

In the course of searching to identify some of my unmarked diecast I've been looking through Robert Newson's Charbens site and there is a tipper attributed to Agasee and Brooks which looks identical to your unknown example beside the Timpo tanker
