Another great lot
Re: Another great lot
I'm sure you'll have fun going through that nice selection of items when they arrive. Looks like the telephone box is Spot On to go with the road sign and traffic lights - not an easy item to find.
Re: Another great lot
Cheers Fred, that's an added bonus. I knew it wasn't Dinky as the window frames are too well defined but I couldn't find any comparable pictures.
Re: Another great lot
i love lots like this,you have a couple of small dinky 35s ,no wheels but still sought after,and theres a little brown driver top right corner that maybe a dozer driver? i would guess the blue campbells cars are plastic,i think i had one before,and i can,t tell weather the coverered waggon with barrels is lesney or budgie ,i would guess budgie has i can,t see a driver, a very nice lot
Re: Another great lot
Yep, the two Austin 7's are the best items for me, I have spare axles and black wheels so these will be an easy fix and they will fill a gap in my 35's. The two original dinky cast drivers are what I spotted too and I am interested to see what make the two gas pumps are. The Hornby HP sign will be going on my sons train layout.

Re: Another great lot
Dinky has made some Gas pumps very similar to those Red and White items, but they are usually trimmed as Esso branded pumps. There are some good condition Corgi Juniors especially the White 'POLICE' Vigilante Range Rover. A couple of Lesney regular wheeled models and an island with Three Gas pumps in Red just above the Yellow Austin. The tiny land speed record cars at first looked like they were 'R & L' but they are more likely to then have the same colouerd wheels, so I will be interested in finding out what they are and staying with plastic, there is a great looking Blue 1911 Maxwell 'Yesteryear' look-a-like lying on it's side, another model I would like to see in more pictures including the base if you can, thank's.

Pre War Reconnaissance Car
Tyre Rack, with some spare tyres I had lying around

Austin 7's, two different colours which is great. With axles and tyres I already had.

To round it out an EFE Ergomatic tanker missing its front two axles. Probably the only disappointment in the whole lot.
