What would you like in order for me to save both the Galaxies, and the 2 nice nice Opel Diplomats? Also maybe the Zodiac in a different colour if Dan doesn't need it? I got this stuff today, anything useful (I'm keeping the big Rover :lol: )

Mookie do u have any more granadas? (im only doing small scale) u can deffinatly have a diplomat for the granny u offerd if u have another then the other is yours aswell

erm the galexys i dunno what about the mk 2 cortina u said about befor for 1 of em and then i dunno offer me somthing similar for the other?

also Mookie there was a load of mercury cougars in v good condition some in boxes some not ranging from £3 to £15 depending on condition and if they had a box ect whats the most ud pay for one? as theres another fair on in 2 months


Dan mate i plan on keeping 2 of the zodiacs one to bangerthe other to shelf so u could have the blue one with the most paint on the roof but it dosent have the spare wheel under the bonnet........

also Dan there was loads of these up there and as ive said previously theres a fair in 2 months so i can grab a load aslong as u can garentee u want them?

and also if any one wants anything in particular then let me know theres so many dealers there its unbeliveable (estimateded 300 stools) pics would be a bonus so i know what to look for and also colour / paint variations will help :)

so basically dan what u got to offer for the blue zodiac? (also pics would help me decide)

and mookie if u dont have a second granada what u got and also somthing for the other galaxie? oh and did u still want the limo and caravan?

Wow! What a haul!

Looks like a number of those cars were previously customized also? And a question on what a car is- back row, near the middle (yellow/red car next to the Rover SD1).

I see a few raceable cars in there- tan and burgandy '82 Pontiac Firebirds (Matchbox), '82 Chevy Camaro (also Matchbox), and the Transits if you plan on doing van bangers. Likewise the forklift, Toyota pickup, Range Rovers, and Transit pickup could be used for banger support.

I do have a few questions regarding cars- the brown and orange hatchbacks next to the blue 18-wheeler, and the blue sedan between two fire trucks in the back row?

the 2 hatchbacks are "renault 5 gt turbos" not sure if they where avaialable in the us or not very common late 80's early 90's car over here amongst the "modified cars" they are still very much so but not as much as thenthese are also a larger than 1 64 scale so of no use to me and have both been repainted

the blue saloon is a ford probe made by matchbox but has been repainted (badly i might add!) and the windows are falling out (not broken just from being taken out when being painted)

i dont plan on doing a van race but im sure if some one else is theyd be of use to them

the forklift has no forks so is also no use to me (as i was going to use it in the scrap yard dio) also none of the tow trucks have hooks

but luckily i have a minty mint tractor that will be used as a car pusher

most of these cars will either be going in a scrap yard dio / monster truck dio or being sold at car boots / ebay or trades for u lot :)

Since Tony's passed, I have to let curiosity get the better of me- what's the damaged blue Matchbox in the front row? I'm also interested in the Majorette Prelude, Corgi Escort, and the Volvo estate with no front wheels.

The damaged green cars a Ford Zephyr, the blue ones a Husky mk10 Jag, and I'm not interested in getting rid of any of them.

And Tony I've got a complete red Volvo, and one painted in Bears colours, just needs signwriting, I'm also interested in the vans and the Majorette Toyota pickup you have.
