I may as well get it to the fray as well. I have a different model that I think you will like. It is for another forum though so I hope I don't step on any ones toes with this. It is just a code 3 after all.
Toy Collector Speaker Van, Set of 4 for Parades, Circus, Events, Fairs etc.

Enjoy>.

My Entry, Hope you like it. Jim

Here are a few more from the same set. Buses too and more speaker vans.

I added a grab pole to the Routemaster bus. Thought it looked good.
Enjoy, Jim

nice models NOBELCO, sorry to burst the bubble though, the bus is either an AEC RT or a LEYLAND RTL

Very nice set Nobleco, and very professionally done! Please explain why they are for a different forum.

The bus is actually a generation earlier and is an STL (the Leyland version was rather unfortunately called an STD

). Dinky kept this in the range so long that they skipped the RT and replaced it with a Routemaster.

Nicely finished, and the pole does look good.

Thanks for explaining Nobleco. I have to tell you I am a complete nut concerning other forums. Diecast that is. I just can't keep track of whatever is happening on other forums.

That is correct, Corgi Kid, and that is as it should be. It is the same on Toy Collector but there we have all, and I mean all toys represented not just Die Cast. If you really want to talk Die Cast, this is the site to be on. There are a couple of good email based chat forums but they don't deal much in Dinky. Mostly newer stuff, Hot Wheels, Matchbox, DY Dinky and latest produced models by companies world wide. The also show their finds too. Surprises me how much a rubber toy car goes for.
There are a couple of other Die Cast sites I go to but lately I have been too busy for even this site. I mostly read the posts and don't comment when they come into my email box.
So on Toy Collector you are also just a click away from the net too.

Nice to see you pop in again Nobelco, and the vans and bus are all very nice too!

Thanks Mark G, I have been very busy of late what with spring here and the yard work and projects underway. Toy business is still going strong too so some days I just don't have the energy left to make sense of things so I usually just read and browse around.

A very high standard as usual glad to hear your business is going okay and you are ok

Thanks Ali, nice to be able to spend some time back here. I missed it. Other sites are great but this is really my home site.
