Just one last find on the way home! #ChadValley #HistoryBehideTheToys

Always come home from Sandown with something interesting. This time there’s a tinplate Adler Sport, obviously German but no maker’s mark. Then there’s a cute, cartoonish cop car from Marusan of Japan, and a few badges of which the International Harvester one is quite scarce

Every J40 has its own story.

People across social media have asked me how I managed to get the colour back into this old French tinplate Joustra bus. I simply used a fine wirewool & a light aerosol oil plus a little time! #HistoryBehideTheToys #WhatsInYourShed

Picked up a couple of French petrol cans today & an old paraffin lamp to add into the collection. The can on the left is marked STELLINE L.B.C & on the bottom 6 25 I'm not sure if this is the same as Valor cans with the month & year date? #MotoringHistory #WhatsInYourShed
