Roffle Charity Model Auction in Memory of Oldford

[Felly Magic]

Hi peeps, I am having a charity auction in aid of St Elizabeth Hospice in Ipswichm who cared for OldFord, John Macgregor as cancer took hold. John was one of those shiters who would help anyone, he had a very dry sense of humour, but a heart of gold. I have his sister's blessing, and she has his old Cortina Crusader now.

 

The model is an Ixo Ford TC3 Taunus with a cast resin right hand drive dashboard, it is 1/43 scale, which is about 4 inches or so long, and comes complete with acreylic display box.

 

The auction is a live event on FB, and all monies raised will go direct to the hospice. I have put in the costs, and my mate Tony Cooper did a brillant job respraying and detailing the interior, anyhow, less natter, and here is a link, he auction starts at 6pm on the 6th May. Wish me luck, as it is a worthy cause

I don't do Faceache but I do wish you the best. I used to see that Cortina about when I lived in Ipswich, that's a nice replica

If anyone who does not do fb, you can do a 'proxy' bid via a PM to me. The hospice fundraising department know about this auction too, fingers crossed it goes for decent wedge, and possibly get it in the Ipswich Star.

We could do a roffle bid.

 

Tenner each to create a bid of £590. If we win the auction then the winner of our roffle gets the model. Even if we don't win we can always just donate the money.
