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.

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

Richard very good info indeed, Ken is riding shot gun on this one awaiting his correction points. Naturally the chrome strip should not be there and was never asked for. Flipper window is wrong design and a few other issues. Should only take them another five years to fix them. Love comments and feedback.
Trucks land on Saturday should only take a year to get through customs, ok so I'm sarcastic.

We only made 25 of these and they are all numbered. Only ten for sale at $130 delivered registered mail. We will have the FE Van out later in the year and followed by an FC Van if the $ does not drop any more other wise we will turn the machine off as no money in it at 76 cents in the dollar as we loose to much on the exchange to US funds. The Utes and Wagons on offer on our site are the last to ever be made. If interested in the all blue Ute message me on models@iinet.net.auThe F600 truck transporter is finally on the water. Regards John

from the guy that scratch built the model in the photo some interesting points.
Hello John, The photo of the Goblin is the one that turned up in our VCCA (Tas) Club newsletter, and on seeing it, i just had to build it, as I thought it was just so good. Then about a two weeks later not really knowing what the rear end was like, i contacted Graeme and told him who i was, and what i was doing. Since that day we have been great friends, and on completion of the model they took a holiday in Tassie, and came and viewed the finished article.
On seeing the model he said to me "i feel like i could get in and just drive away". That was good enough for me.
That is the best photo he has even though it is black and white, and i think from memory it was Pink with the whitewalls in that photo. My colour photo is the 48-215 Holden Dark Green, which i have the name of written down in my modelling files somewhere.
As an FE-FC man you would recognise the Windscreen (FC Rear Window), FC Standard Chrome strip, and Grille Badge that he used.
Regards Alan
