alexander72 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 What an amazing collection "dangler Skipworth" really made me laugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rab (bombero) Reid Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 There had been hope that a collector in Scotland/UK might buy the fleet as is but alas, no. Sad to see the collection of some of our best racing heritage split up! :-( 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SootySport Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 I had the Dinky Toy Ecurie Ecosse collection years ago, was the pride of my fleet, just love the transporter it's as iconic as the cars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall if it was '72 or '73, but the 6-wheel Tyrells were technically interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
