GunnerJim Platinum Boarder OFFLINE Posts: 10453 Karma: 332	Those pedal cars are in immaculate condition. Another is the old photo showing the loading docks showing Austin Vans loading prams which Tri-ang also was famous for. Well that is my guess about the Austin or could be a Bedford.

dinkyjay Platinum Boarder OFFLINE Posts: 4534 Karma: 241	Wonderful collection, must take up some room displaying those. As for your yellow Triumph it is either a tr4 or 5.

Sierra1 Platinum Boarder OFFLINE Posts: 420 Karma: 83	Thanks guys, Andy this is the one you asked to see, its my latest and its a do I or don't I? It's all there, been touched up in places and the rear wings should be black towards the end. Just one headlamp lens missing. As you can see, bumpers and grille are all diecast so will clean up fabulously.

This ones a definite don't too much originality. I will add some pictures of some of my collection.
