Hi Nick,yes there some nice pieces, and expensive,but as they say
you only get what you pay for,but where else can you buy a 650,
660 or 666 especially of this quality,sorry but the model maker wants
to remain anonymous they make only a small amount each year of
the rare or hard to find models,and they dont come much harder to
find than these,he puts a great deal of effort and miles into getting
the models to scale and the detail correct,and he,s a dam nice bloke

When I went to a Caterpillar event last year at Russ Saywell's ,there were fantastic Cat models made by a chap,I think he was from Australia.His name escapes me.Perhaps you know? His models were very limited and very expensive.

Hi Stuart,fancy Martyn getting you mixed up with someone else ;)
and ive rounded up the herd behind glass so the grand kids dont start
moving the garden around with them,as well as the tc12 three versions
of the vickers vigor dozers are built to the same superb quality even the
bonnet lifts to reveal the RR lump under,each tractor of the tc12 pivets
individually and the string blade is made from several strands of real fine
wire cable as cotton did,nt hang or look right :thumbs_up:
