As Bought:
Dinky 30m / 414 Dodge Rear Tipping Wagon
Model #1
As Bought:
Obviously in very poor condition - repainted at some time, no tyres, bent axles - one with string knotted around it and the baseplate rusty. The lifting mechanism was in good order though.
Restored:
Now that it is finished i'm not sure about the colours - it seemed like a good idea at the time but I think I prefer the original orange/green or grey/blue.
Maybe I should strip it and start again.What do you think?
Model #2
As Bought:
(right maroon)Missing rear and all tyres. It is also badly chipped.
Restored:
A 25 series rear was attached to this chassis to create a code 3 model.
Model #3
As Bought:
Missing all tyres. It is also badly repainted and chipped.
Restored:
Repainted in red and brown. A new tilt support was made and a new rear gate fitted.
