britainstoys.nl Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 I have found a new one for my collection the Volunteer Corps motor ambulance number 1513 with split wind screen. Quote
ploughmaster Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 That's quite a rarity, especially with the late cab (based on a Fordson ET6 I think). Very good find, well done. Quote
Matt. Posted January 4, 2010 Posted January 4, 2010 I just bought this off ebay,I now have 5 of the old britains lorries and they go well with the old tractos etc. Anyone else have any ? \ My dad has a real one Quote
super6 Posted January 5, 2010 Posted January 5, 2010 I have found a new one for my collection the Volunteer Corps motor ambulance number 1513 with split wind screen. Is the driver separate and metal? Quote
britainstoys.nl Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 The driver is separate and metal. Are there different versions off it?? Quote
super6 Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 The driver is separate and metal. Are there different versions off it?? First versions has a driver with a peaked cap, same as the military driver. Does yours have a beret on his head, that being the second version, unless I am mistaken. Quote
Andy Posted June 9, 2010 Posted June 9, 2010 A fair absence of new additions to the lorry collection until a few weeks ago. The clockwork lorry with key is a great original example. Royal mail lorry is original but has been touched up in places. Quote
bigbear Posted December 25, 2010 Posted December 25, 2010 I collect most things Britains, but have none of these. They look fantastic! I think that even a 'played with' example would display well, as they have that 'old toy' ambiance to them. All of my Britains lorries are of the modern variety. Great thread, thanks! Quote
Andy Posted May 22, 2011 Posted May 22, 2011 Got a few more updates to this topic to make tomorrow Has anyone else found any more variations recently? Quote
Andy Posted June 29, 2012 Posted June 29, 2012 Apologies for the year delay in updating this. Several more now to add. I am going to create a collection topic on the forum for them for easier viewing. Quote
david_scrivener Posted June 29, 2012 Posted June 29, 2012 Apologies for the year delay in updating this. Several more now to add. I am going to create a collection topic on the forum for them for easier viewing. Is the thread going to be for all Britains old vehicles except tractors & implements? With that ***le, it could include the rare and interesting, but not farm, police car, army vehicles, motor bikes, etc. To keep it easier to find stuff, I'd suggest a date line of up to about 1961 or '62. Perhaps with another thread(s) for later stuff, datelines for each if more than one. Perhaps the figures section would be the best place for vintage horse drawn vehicles, say one thread for Britains and one for 'the others'. Quote
