Clive Mortimore Posted January 14 Author Share Posted January 14 Tonight I have been making roofs for some coaches I am making, as they get nearer that Mortimore nearly built look I will take some snaps. Tonight's song is an old one Despite me playing various Icelandic bands some of you may not have bothered to learn Icelandic so here is a version for you, The Icelandic version is better in my mind. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a white metal kit so I presume it is based on a prototype, any ideas? The little van thingy has been identified by a mate on a fcaebook group as being a Southeast Finecast Bullion Van http://www.sefinecast.co.uk/Wagons/Wagons Page 1.htm?fbclid=IwAR327S3V9x38Y6VqLUCT3jkLOLFtMqlLxFu1O6pgCCZ0twunGoItgK5I3UQ 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Working on that logic, when i sneak in with a can of primer then there will be no issue because you won't have been responsible for the painting 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
