How many Fords can you fit in one frame? Four on the truck, the truck itself arguably and a Corsair parked in the foreground. |

Nice pic , shame about the truck passengers, could have got another Ford on the back! -- Last edit: 2011-07-21 16:38:39 |

That's why I originally posted this as a Ford Thames Trader. Unfortunatley, when I did, it came out as being American-made. |

It looks as if this front is 1962+ Trader Mk2 from our other examples. Silcock & Colling seem to have been a regular 1960s car delivery outfit based in Berkshire eg http://nigelsworld.homeip.net/diecast/detail.php?ID=1253&pictureID=13067 . Cortinas are 1965+ my deluxe. |
