bunglebus Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 New arrivals in the form of some cheap job lots. Among less-interesting stuff, a couple more Probes. Adams, not Ford GT70 isn't one I've had my mitts on before Mercedes C111 has had a previous makeover I've got all these public service Hot Wheels already, but couldn't resist for a quid. A Color Shifter taxi/police cruiser and two different Crack-Ups police cars - maybe it's time I re-painted one. These older colour changing cars often seem to show both paint schemes as they age also included were these two Kidcos Sudsprint, flat4alfa, AndyW201 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spottedlaurel Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Something I learned today.... I've had this nice example of the Dodge Charger III for a good few years now. A fairly typical flight of fancy of the era. Today I discovered there was an AMT kit of this Funny Car version. Just found some interesting info and old articles about it here: http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,8604.0.html Datsuncog, Sudsprint, bunglebus and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flat4alfa Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 The first pic is of a houseboat in Sausalito, California. Apparently long-gone. Taken on film, it must date to seventies/early eighties. The second is a digital pic from Sep 2008. The cut body top half was fitted to a houseboat in Gävle, Sweden. If you look at the top and halfway along, there is a hold rail. Shortly after, it was recovered and shipped to the UK to a collector, who then sold it on to a collector in Austria in Feb 2009. It was a RHD body, as they were in Sweden back in 1953-55 when the rooflight 23-window body was current. That's as far as I got to AndyW201, bunglebus, Sudsprint and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
