I have to ban Ghosthunter from this one as I know hes an expert on plastics.....Same size here as a Matchbox Singer van but this is the rare Escort shooting brake....Suprising what a toothbrush and paste can clean up hey?......

Sshh hh.I think he knows..

Can we let Kevin have a go at it yet?

Oh go on then ..Every body else is on holiday....

Thank's Guys.

The pictures by ''misterpop'' above show a small plastic (around 2.5 inches long), Ford Squire which is the estate version of the Ford Prefect from 1957ish. This little model car was sold as part of a Two car set with an ESSO petrol station by Wells Brimtoy, the other car in the set was the Saloon car version of the Squire so will be the Prefect.

These Fords are rarely seen on the open market so Ian has done well to find that one.

Thats right Kevin bang on.Tonight it will be T cutted and placed you know where......I never knew about these when I was a train guy or I would have seaked these out and owned a whole collection as this was my first car,well the van was.......in fact I owned a few of these real cars,nice and easy to work on none of this new fangled electronic nonsense.....

I know what you mean Ian, real cars held together with string, bits of wire and a multitude of different sized nuts and bolts. Put cheap supermarket petrol in a modern car, the computer throws a wobbly and thinks it is a good idea to illuminate an Amber warning light on the dashpanel!!
