Demountable Models

[rubberrat]

There are a few out there, we had a Corgi one on the Ebay thread. Found this bit of retro nostagia on Gumtree...(£20 somewhere in Norfolk)

I think that is a Simca Rancho (My first car was a three year old Simca 1100 that had the same front, and was already rusty!)

Show N' tell,
so its a 'thing' now is it

Surprising how many crop up - popular in the States I guess

Well. They certainly skew my ebay alerts,
Open an alert expecting to find a camper for sale and get one of these instead,

Suprising just how many do the rounds, not seen a suntreker so far although following a google alert that arrived last month
Would suggest there isn't an age restriction on their content


(Judging by the sexual content of a blogger called 'suntreker')

Nicely detailed camper but definitely on the wrong truck

I think I saw that bottom one just the other day on sale somewhere

This must be the smallest demountable model in the world - Z gauge - which is tech-speak for very very small
