super6 Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 I was going to post mine up but you've beaten me to it, lovely collection though. Interesting pair of Volvo 2654's, hadn't seen one on normal style wheels before, did that one come with the black decal'd cab? The boxed set(s) seems to be the hardest to find along with the very early Deutz and Ford with Volvo style wheels, unless these where catalogue versions only! What ones are you seeking? Have you any road series? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super6 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I have one or two or more but not all of them. I won/bought a Deutz with the Volvo wheels, via eBay, all the way from Ireland. When it turned up it was a green one with red Volvo wheels that had been spray painted all over yellow, and obviously painted yellow at that. An honest trader though, who refunded me all monies without a making a song and dance about it when I returned it. I did see a 7710 with Chevrons decals on the bonnet instead of the FORD 7710 decals, as shown in the '84 catalogue. The black decal'd Volvo's were originally released in the Farm range with a 9590 cat. number, so I don't suppose many came out in an Autoway box although shown in the '84 catalogue. With regards 9887, 9888 and 9889 I don't have any of them ..................... yet It's not the same colour yellow as the BT LR is it? What's the significance of the blue inner trays? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the significance of the blue inner trays? never seen a deutz on volvo wheels but ive seen the ford 7710 with chevron decals on volvo wheels in the 7710 rainbow box. The volvo was in the 84/85 catalogue with black decals never in with red so not sure when the change came about discontinued in 86 what's not the same colour as BT LR ? Not quite sure of the significance of the blue inner trays but my guess is it was somthing to do with the realese of the road series as everything with a blue inner tray came out in the road series apart from deutz and dump trailor.I've got cement truck in orange' dynapac roller mine's yellow but i've also seen it in orange' petrol tanker' i've also seen winget dumper and cement mixer and land rover and safety trailor with blue inner tray's. That's my guess anyway unless anyone else can shed any light Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan_coe2012 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 That is a great collection you have there, like a few have already said did dnt realise there were that many in the auto way series, I also have the roller myself and do you or anyone else know what the tab does that can be pushed side to side behind the cab as it seems to do nothing on mine, don't know whether mine is broken or not? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a spare one, without the hardtop though BT LR's do appear on eBay quite often(ish) Yep a little darker but not much in it. Only ones I've seen are the ones I have. There is also a cardboard shop display stand out there somewhere, not found one yet 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also a cardboard shop display stand out there somewhere, not found one yet yes i've been looking on eBay could do with one for a display Had a look in my catalogue's and noticed the deutz had black decals when first released in the autoway range in 84 then changed to red after that so your's must be an early one thats another for me to look out for 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super6 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 A recent purchase. I'e seen one of these before somewhere, as the box art/picture is ringing a very feint bell, but cannot remember where It's not listed anywhere as far as I can tell although it does have some numbers on the box and sleeve. Maybe it was put together for a shop chain a bit like the boots playbase? The packaging is all original,as far as the seller could tell. I think it's incomplete as there is not enough to hold all objects securely. There appears to be too many men with spades and not enough with stop/go signs and no cones, easily sorted though. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDFord Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Paul, I seem to remember someone I used to work with had that set, along with an autoway 7710 which I bought off him. I'm sure he said that the set came from Argos many years ago. I should have bought the set as well rally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
