My Blackshort Legion has acquired a steam-driven Foden lorry.
The model is diecast metal by Matchbox and is loosely 1:43 and avaiable for small change still in the box in eBay.
I keep buying these things to kitbash but they are so nice that I can't bring myself to apply a hacksaw.
I used to have a large collection of these lovely matchbox models.
ReplyDeleteThey are still available second hand and people have kept them like new.
DeleteThey look too good to be 'converted' IMHO and what a great resource for this period. Sadly there is little like this in 1/144th scale.
ReplyDeleteVery little in 1/144. Quite a lot in 1/76 HO.
