Trip to my model supplier delivered these models today:

Deutz-Fahr DX 230 (Schuco)

Fiat 1000 DT (Replicagri)

County 1474 (UH)

Ford 8830(UH)

Ford TW 30(UH)

Fiatagri G240 (ROS)

Dewulf Ra 3060 (DPModels) PDmodel

Pictures: TW 30 comes with genuine load of oil underneath it! Models are getting véry realistic these days. County and 8830 also had it. Second pic of the new fleet additions and thirdly the Dewulf tattie harvester in its protective box where it will probably stay!

Whats the fiat 1000 like mate? good hitch?

2 eBay lots arrived today:

#1: Mega rare but damaged (roof of cottage) Britains 168F farmyard, only sold for a few months in 1959. Now I'm deciding how best to restore the cottage roof. Because of the damage, only £12.73. A good condition example in a specialist auction and properly described would probably go to well over £200!

From the same seller I also bought 2 x £4.99 lots of wooden fencing which I think were made by Peacock & Co in the 1930s.

#2: Another job lot of buildings etc. A thatched cottage with garden/yard, 20 sections of Peacock & Co (also 1930s) 'brick wall' (actually crudely painted wood, but hey, they were TOYS! The items in the lot I really wanted), 8 x small scale, about 1/72, German made farm/village buildings and some tiny trees & fences to go with (I might sell these, but doubt anyone will be interested here), and some assorted plastic farm figures & animals, some Britains/Herald, others Hong Kong. Just over £60 the lot including P&P

Sounds like you've bought some bargains and very interesting stuff at that! Are you going to post up pics?

I can't post pictures at present because my only camera is the old fashioned film kind, so have to finish the film, get it developed etc. Also I'm not on photobucket (& don't know how it works anyway) which is why I haven't posted any pictures on any forum. There are only about 4 or 5 members here who seem interested in really old stuff, and when I get them, I'll be happy to email the photos to you, Sue, Peter, etc.
