Did you do them yourself or did you buy those bad boys. If buy, from where???

The corgi fishbowl I bought from diecast direct, I think royal coach still has it and the 1/87 or HO models were custom made by a friend of mind, they were road champs, and the new flyer is made of bossa wood I believe. Oh the other corgi was custom painted...some friend, credit goes to Freddy.

Many of those were models I did over the past few years, including the New Flyer, the Fishbowl, and almost all of the Flxes. Mark, good to see you on the board!

Thanks Fred it's a good place to be. I was cleaning off a jump drive and found some more of your work that I'll share with the board. Enjoy

OK I'm back and here are a few photos of my 1/50 GRTC models one was done by Fred and the other a gentleman in Md. Now can you guess which one is which (final jeopardy music please)(and remember all answers must be phrased in a queston LOL). Enjoy

Oh due to the fact of me being a poor bus driver there will be no prizes. LOL!

In the last picture, the one on the right is Fred's. Or...um...

A: "This bus model was painted and customized by Fred"
Q: "What is the one on the right?"

metroman177 · February 04, 2010, 01:54:50 PM

You're right the bus on the right(418) is the one Fred did, however I don't believe Richmond carried the orange across the back...,but it looks good.
