Another Nice motor Guv!
« on: 24 July 2007, 10:49:59 PM »
Just picked up some cheap British 1:43 cars, a Ford capri, Ford Escort mk1 and an old Transit van.
Here's Detective Sergeant "Shady" Lane next to his pride and joy, a ford Capri.



I'm going to beat up the transit van and use it as a Flying Squad covert ops vehicle.

Ahh the old Ford Capri, a classic, Where are the fluffy dice? :lol:

Ilke the large collar and tie on that figure, very 70's. Is he a converted Copplestone gangster by any chance?

Hah! You got me! He's a Copplestone "Bad Guy in a Suit" with a extra large collar and a kipper tie added!
