Firstly Happy New Year boys and girls,

It seems like it’s not just me who has been busy with projects on a smaller scale over the Christmas period. I have been working on my code 3 buses. I have made a couple of these Club Class buses with the view to selling some on once they are all completed. I have also been working on my Bristol Lodekka breakdown trucks which were double deckers to start with then cut down, shortened and lots of new scratch built parts added to give it the look.

Ray, if you give me a shell then I can do you a custom General and even produce the decals for it and it will surely be a one off model!

All the best,

Sean

And from what i've heard Larry likes models of the blow up type.. :wink:
If a link was changed to "ebay linky" then that was probably Sam, because she's sad..
