I didn't know about the different base plate attachment on this model. I have three and they are all riveted. Funnily enough two have exactly the same crack in the rear window as yours has.

Is that a DUKW in the picture?

My wife and I went on a tour of Boston in one of those last year, great fun going in and out of the harbour (or harbor since it was in the US)

Nice set of Dinky's Carl. I have the Humber Hawk police car too, but it needs restoring! No doubt other members do too!
