Firstly Bob thanks very much for the shout out, you did really well with that lot really well ,crecent/lone star / benbros excellent, looking forward to seeing your ideas for a scrap yard ,man after my own heart ,used to love roaming around those old scrap yards getting bits for my cars .if you want that spot on rolls doing drop me a line .
Thanks Martin, I couldn't believe the models I got for that price. Some unusual ones too. Scrapyards always fascinated me, I got a job in one once too. I'll show the start of that project in the next video. Take care.
Just subscribed! Martin Dare recommended and he was not wrong! That little AA Land Rover Hardtop was a bit of a peach, and it'll restore well: quite rare, I imagine. Bonneted trucks were generally for export as the FC units were difficult to work on. That Imp'll do nicely! I got an excellent donation of the Jeep Conveyor truck from Martin, which came without the conveyor belts, and ordered replacement belts. They lasted three months in good ambient conditions, despite my location, so be warned if you need to replace! I need to get some more already, and i didn't even get to pay with it! They are a bugger to meddle with and rebuild, but quite satisfying in the end. I liked the Spot On Wraith too. I liked the Corgi Healey and Mini Van - it would be interesting to look at this and the Spot On side by side to see where the scales differ... The Bike is a Triumph, I think, and should have had a sidecar. The Trans-o-Lite P6 Rover is a great base for Code3! The King Size Caterpillar D9 does makes a good prop for a low loader: I have mine sitting on a Bedford. Send the Chitty to Kev for a proper Banger racer! The TK cab is always useful: you should keep that! Great video, and interesting haul. Thank you for sharing your bargain!
Thanks so much for the encouraging comments. I will be ordering some parts from Steve Flowers for some of these models. Thanks for the heads up about the conveyor belts on the Jeep, interesting to know the replacements don't last. I might do a comparison video of the Corgi and Spot On Mini vans, good idea. Thanks for watching. 👍
Fantastic lot Bob ,excellent cars for restorations, I love the side dump ,that could be bice restored, the motorbike is a Britains and the police car is Budgie toys I believe, awesome, cheers Laz
Bargain selection there for the money. Restored Most of those. The belts for the conveyor jeep are available from Steve Flowers. They are fiddly. Martin Dare did a video on one.. I've got the larger Budgie toys version of the Wolseley police car. Alfa sports is a really nice rarity. Well done
@@ianhow100 Thanks 👍 I've got a few cars for restoration now. It's good that most parts are available from Steve Flowers. I've spent a good bit of money on parts from him recently! I'll get them done when they get some spare time.
