watermill Posted October 14, 2012 Author Share Posted October 14, 2012 Thanks Joe, i will sort that out now, the Landies arnt conversions - they are original prototypes from Britains factory. I have a few that i've managed to find, cant say how though!! But, they are 100% original, even got wriing in pencil on the white areas, and dated by the designer. He has even pencilled on measurements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Wow...that's an awesome collection of Land Rovers to start with Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 What a way to start a collection, with vintage Britains PROTOTYPES of all things!! Very nice they are too might I add. I can only forward to the rest of tour topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMB Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 :of Astonishing, that little lot must be worth a tidy sum alone! They did look a little too 'clean' to be conversions (although the standard is improving all the time). Can't wait to see what else you've got!

You can back up on CD and Photobucket and infact keel none on your pc at all if you so wish. It also keeps Forum space clear which benefits all of us. It means you don't have to resize larger, high quality files as these hosting websites do all that for you, for free! Another benefit for the viewers of your photos is they are treated to large photos immediately - every one in the post. So we don't have click on each one individually. Great news for all the effort the author goes to as we sit here taking notice of all of the photos - not just clicking on some of them to enlarge. Charlie, it is worth the hassle. FTF was the first Forum I ever joined and I learnt a lot about this sort of stuff here. Now, using a truck drivers forum, a German Shepherd forum and other model forums I find doing it this way keeps it the same right across the boards. Every forum has different self hosting software you see and some are far inferior to what Andy has had built for FTF. I use Photobucket for topic updates and so on and then use the forums own uploader for the odd pics here and there. As a none paying user of Photobucket as I am, there is a monthly upload limit by the way but I have never hit this so it must be quite generous.

I can see a few jealous people ou there! What's the story behind your collection, like why, where you find them, how long, how many etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
