Now here's something that's a tad different, suppose you could call it a 'Butchers Light Order Model T Ford', looks like the rear end was swiped from an old horse drawn vehicle and just plonked onto the back of the Model T.

Needed a bit of light hearted relief, as I was getting a bit of burn out from all the scratchbuilding that I had been doing, so I liked the look of the Ford Model T in the first photo.
Soon had a box full of plastic bits on the bench and a couple of weeks later, this appeared on the workbench.

Sorry, just couldn’t help myself, I just had to take to that box of bits and rearrange them, just to make it a lot more interesting, instead of slamming and whacking bit ‘A’ onto bit ‘B’.

Glueing these box full of plastic bit’s together is just s-o-o-o-o-o easy, really can’t see why others have any problems with slamming them together.

The biggest headache was doing the art work for the decals, all done in-home using CorelDraw and then printed out on an ALPS MD5500 printer.

Have a look and if anybody has any questions, then please ask.

Lovely model! I've always had a soft spot for the 'T'. Perhaps it was all the Laurel and Hardy films I've watched.
Very nicely done.
