New arrivals

Terry --yes, it was a combination of more crowding and moving a collection of 410 Bedford Vans to another display case. Jan, what a wonderful Peugeot. If I ever find one of these I would like that color too!

Two arrivals today ...

Jon-Both very nice! I especially like the Mercedes in that color.....much nicer than the white I have.Best regards,Terry

Yes, I had only the white too, and I agree that the silver is nicer. Meantime the French Austin-Healey should have been a nicer color, but as you know this is the only color they produced.

Hello Friends. First arrivals in 2021 Very happy, specially with the Jaguar, which is very hard to find with the white steering wheel . Kind regards Richard

This morning they arrived: two proof copies of a tiny little 40 pages 10x13 cm booklet, showing all my additions over the past year. It looks great - in my opinion. I can recommend you trying yourself. They cost only 15 euros each, the mail included, and the quality is superb! Kind regards, Jan

New items for 2021:) In the last image, it is the very rare display sign that is new. Unfortunately I had to mount it on a case from a bit later period ... And in the Ford D800, I wonder if the stamps numbered '3' are some kind of inspection sticker I haven't encountered before. The box was taped shut with what appeared to be factory tape, and the model was sold as 'new old stock.'

Arrived today at last, twelve weeks after dispatch (November 1 2020) by the UK seller! This may be a consolation and a source of hope for those who are still desperately awaiting a parcel from abroad for a long time. Because the model was so cheap I had it sent by regular mail, without track & trace, which may be the cause of the delay, the mail handling links probably putting parcels like these temporarily aside, giving way to track & trace and signed for. It was cheap indeed, because it is not point mint (a visible factory flaw on one wheel) and because the box is poor and with the wrong colour dot. This was no problem for me because I do not need the box, this was an excellent candidate for completing my Luxury Coach trade box with a correct example. Three maroon ones have red wheels, all but one, having the same maroon hubs. This is the one to be replaced, and the contents look great now! Kind regards, Jan

Jan, that's a beauty, and I suspect your 'cheap' would not be my 'cheap.' I'm so glad it arrived after such a long delay. My acquisition today was this snow plough, adding to my fleet here in the land where it never snows. (Only Californian children who go to the mountains would even know what a snow plough is for.) Actually I already had a mint/boxed one just like it (I have pictured the blemished side of this one; the other side is fine) but at $45, this was begging to be adopted

New today ... should be the last for a while!

The other day I picked up a nice grey companion to my blue Frazer Nash and three additions to my traffic lights: 2x 2-face and 1x 3-face. The Frazer Nash unveils a surprising tyres composition, which I hope to show in an appropriate thread. Kind regards, Jan

New yesterday ...
