Ford Thames Atlas Copco Compressor - 436

The Ford Thames 400e 15cwt Van was a really attractive looking truck - compare it to Austins and Commers of the time.

Both Corgi and Dinky had a go at modelling it and I've put a picture of the Corgi on the page for comparison, I can't really choose between them - both are good - maybe the lines are sharper on the Dinky and I think the Corgi gets the essence bang on.

Both models show an ingenuity and a real consideration of adding play value.
