Bit of a mixed bag this time,  Ive been raiding the toy box again!

Starting with the Commer BF. Available as an ancient Lesney toy it came in 2 types, a TV repair van and a food truck with open sides. The wheels were replaced with RTI ones and the central pillar in the windscreen filed down as far as I dared. I increased the width of the door window and added the bodyside detail from 10 thou microstrip.

Next up the good old Corgi MAN cab.  I fancied something a little different so I converted it to the longer cab version. It sits on an Oxford diecast chassis.

Remember the Tiny City police van I did? At the time I mentioned they also did a decent looking ambulance and this is it. I removed the Hong Kong markings. Painted the window frames black and the blue lights were given a coat of Tamiya clear blue (as supplied they were clear).  I figured since I work for the ambulance service I probably should have one somewhere. Don’t worry I’m not planning any car crash cliché scenes!

Finally the little Langley models Dodge tipper. As suggested I swapped the lights for some smaller ones (again RTI)
