I quite like the delicate features on some models

I can imagine many boxes being damaged by the long smoke stack had this version continued in production.

With my color perception limitations I struggle a bit with these base colors but somehow these don't seem to match with the 39a base photo you posted George. (And yes, I know I don't have my tan based example in this picture) What do you guys think?

Here is the 39C Ford tractor with light blue paint and with the larger yellow front wheels/hubs.

Hi Greg. Nice base line-up. Your color tone differences look the same to me as George's but with different lighting, viewed on my Ipad. Let's see what others think. Jay
