Thanks guys believe it or not the trucks are not selling well at all. I know it is quiet out there but this is a bit of a worry.
Thanks for your support and very nice comments.

This model has sensational detail, and makes a great display piece. Get yourself one for Father's Day.

Thanks Richard and I have to say it was the information from members here that made this happen and I thank one and all for the time and effort given to me.
I think the people on this forum are tops, a really nice bunch. I have sent Neil and his family some trucks and also Des Gibbs with the red truck for allowing us into their world.
Cheers
John

Trucks might be my future all in 1/43rd as the car market is saturated and we cant make any money from low production runs. We pay to much in China as they hate our orders hence why it takes us so long to release a car. They push us to the back of the far Que to let the big orders in first.
Classic trucks might be the way to go.
Glad everyone is happy with the trucks and again you guys were very responsible for its success.
Cheers
John.

Interesting history of spelling mistake.

Message: Hi, I would like to get a price on the Scott's (Macs Motors) car transporter with the FC Holden's. Neil Scott is my Uncle and the Trailer was highly modified by my Dad (L.A.McCleary) so the cars could be driven on and off without the use of a fork lift. The spelling mistake was our fault the sign writer (Collin Dunbar) only copied what we gave him!  All spelling on sign writing was double checked from then on!!
