Deere-est Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Found a model truck mag on the shelves at Swindon Truckstop earlier in the week. Never knew there was one about. Anyway, bought it, read it and drooled over the pics was none to surprised to find there were none on 1/32. Bring on an email to the Ed about this; the lack of decent 1/32 trucks to follow on with my 1/32 model farm collecting hobby. A mention of FTF was included of course. A swift reply told me there were very few production models around and that there are even fewer scratch builders in this scale. He also said he checked out the website and found it very very interesting and hopes to keep himself up to date with it as and when he can. Aswell as putting a mention for the forum in the next edition. Arn't I good?!! Here is the website - http://www.truckmodelworld.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 Tris, I recieved an email this morning regarding your letter to that truck magazine, if you have already been contacted, sorry if it is old news! Hi, I was reading the letters page of "Model Truck World" and one of your members ( Tristan Fry ) said he has been searching for 1:32nd scale model trucks to go with the farm machinery that he has but couldn't find anything. I might be able to help. I make 1:32nd scale trucks and do a huge range of types, makes etc including Flatbeds, box vans, low loaders, tankers and too many others to mention. I can also build to order if there was anything specific that was needed. For more info please contact me at pamodelmaker@btinternet.com or check out my website at www.pamodelmaker.com I hope this is of interest to you and your members Paul Anderson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
