MATCHBOX MODELS OF YESTERYEAR Y-31 1931 MORRIS COURIER

1:46 PM Posted by timo 0 comments


This is the Y-31 1931 Morris Courier in the yellow livery of 'Weetabix'. The baseplate was altered to reflect its new 'Made in China' origins but the copyright date was left at 1989. The bright Weetabix livery looked very good but this body type was really more of a furniture delivery van so it was not strictly accurate. Shop here

VANGUARD 1/43 AUSTIN A40 VAN COW & GATE

12:15 PM Posted by timo 0 comments

The Cow & Gate Company founded in 1771 by the Gates family as a small grocery shop in Guildford. Expansion into the dairy trade followed in 1887 with a new business called the West Surrey Central Dairy. During 1900 they began to sell milk powder to the bakery and catering trade and this was followed in 1904 with a link to the medical profession by supplying milk powder to be used as a baby food. By 1920 the Cow & Gate brand was so strongly associated with baby feeding that it was adopted as the company name.

The A40 of 1947 was Austin's first mass market post-war car and marked the debut of a new 1200cc 40bhp OHV engine that was the direct ancestor of the familiar B-Series but which was very different in detail. The van version modelled here, was available from 1948 and was produced alongside it's pick-up cousin until the range was dropped in 1956 after 140,060 vans/pick-ups had been built. Shop here

11:29 AM Posted by timo 0 comments

Barton Centenary RTL Bartons were for many years of the 20th century Britains largest independent bus operators. The business pioneered both British and Continental Coach Holidays with its popular Road Cruises and the Company also ran an extensive Express Service network of coaches throughout Britain. The business was founded in 1908 near Nottingham by one of the great innovators and characters of the passenger transport industry, Thomas Henry Barton O.B.E., and his family. There were long associations with certain chassis manufacturers, most notably Daimler, followed by Lancia and then Leyland. But Bartons remain famous for their reputation for the superb re-engineering of a very wide range of vehicles (including re-bodying) to suit their own individual requirements. Shop here
