I bid on this item on Ebay this is the sellers advert for the model.

I got so excited when I won it, but when it arrived it was the one with a rear window :x :x I emailed the seller 4 times but no reply.
I then put in a claim through Ebay that bought a quick response, they said they would refund the purchase price but I had to pay the postage both ways.

Then I noticed the wheels were different sizes my one was 9x20 tread but this one was 8x18 tread, of course I cancelled the claim, some time you can get lucky :) :) :lol:

Well spotted George, glad it worked out. One of the best definitions of serendipity I ever heard was from Robert A. Heinlein. He said "Serendipity is when you dig for worms and find gold". It seems you found some gold. Congratulations.
