Actually Tim,

the picture has not been shot in Sepia, it is a natural color picture, just using similar colors for the background

Great job, Don. Very clean build. The truck is R.A.F. Is the prototype of UK or US manufacture?

Many thanks for all these supportive comments.

Good to hear from you, Jim. The 3-ton Leyland RAF-pattern cargo lorry was manufactured by the British Leyland firm, which derived from the Lancashire Steqam Motor Company and the name comes form the town of Leyland in South Ribble (you couldn't make these names up) Borough, Lancashire, where Messrs. James Sumner and Henry Spurrier set up shop to produce fomby steam vans in 1896.

Leyland Trucks Ltd is one of Britain’s leading manufacturing companies and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PACCAR Inc. Leyland Trucks designs and produces the LF, CF and XF models, which are high-quality light, medium and heavy-duty trucks unde

Slainte'

P.o.t.w

Coming at ya very soon Guys and Gals I will be doing this P.O.T.W selection very soon, when Jason gets it all set up. With Christmas very close, it would be a GREAT HONOUR for one of you to have the P.O.T.W over the holiday period - i will be looking for something that gives us the sense of occasion " Not just something with a touch of glitter added " I will start a thread up for you to post your piccys for this special occasion. The model can be anything so long has it fits the theme ! The one i select will WIN a 2011 calendar {i will send this personally to the winner}

Very nice Don. I like trucks like these. When I can project myself into a model and wonder would feel, then I know it is a good model, and this one took me there.
