New casting? Quick! Take it apart!
The odds of finding an undocumented Mustang Mark I in a junkyard that Just David owns is just as rare, but didn't I report seeing one there near Phoenix?

The odds of finding a yellow Mustang concept car in a junkyard is pretty low too, but it is going to happen soon.....

David had asked about the Skoda...

Sean had given it to me-someone had painted it in an awful, tacky shade of maroon. I figured, let's see what I can do with it. I stripped it, and repainted it in a dark red metallic, and put on a helping or two of clearcoat. Paint looked great, but the wheels were awful (I had no replacement 8-Dots on hand, either), and the glazing was shot to heck. So, I gave it to Jon, 'cuz a Skoda in a UK yard? Like, yeah.

Crafty, it is a Siku Mercedes, bought it at a toyfair for 2 dollars, a steal in my opinion, I like the grip that it has so it can really hold onto cars, a really cool little truck

Just came into the yard! Owners son's Pre-ran Volvo estate, and a Almost race prepped SD1 for bangering. Everyone came to take a look at the damage done to the Volvo the previous night.

;) Thanks Sean!

I love all of Siku's trucks, they are immaculately detailed. Also, I love Hiabs (Trucks with hydraulic cranes).

:o

That Volvo must've been smashed through the center of the sun by an '80s Mercedes diesel, that's the only explanation.
