Some lovely models there steve
 Once again I couldn’t attend, I was hoping to turn up this year to put some faces to names!!
 But as I’m self employed if work needs doing I’m all over it-hopefully make it next year. Does anyone have any news on the KFS day cab  Bedford Tm?

They did not have it at the show -- I asked about it. It's happening, but the 'tweaks' are taking a lot longer than expected  :laugh:

Is the Scania tag from an aftermarket manufacturer?

I love that AEC wrecker with the Marathon on the hook, and the TK artic looks great, whoever built that did a lovely job on the early “ cats whisker” cab👍👍

no it was just what someone was building from what i know
the wrecker and marathon is neil69's build so it should be on the forum somewhere
if it's the TK I am thinking of, then it was built by Simon Batterby

I could be mistaken, but that looks a lot like the Italeri Scania tag-axle set up.
