Well, a few days ago Tyler Linner posted a trivia challenge to guess the correct vehicle depicted in a cropped close-up image of said car. Within about five minutes of Wikipedia-ing, I discovered that it was a Hino Contessa PC (first gen) and therefore cinched the prize of 12 VW/Audi/Porsche castings as long as I paid shipping. With a bit more negotiation (and miscommunication!), he graciously tossed in three Citroens for a small fee and the box was sent my way. Last night, this is what I received.
Besides Linner’s awesome drawing (seriously, if you’ve never received a package from him there’s nothing better than seeing a strikingly accurate marker-drawn car on the outside of the box), inside awaited twelve unknown castings (plus three Citroens).
As is expected in any mystery package/shipment, there are a few duplicates in this collection that I’m willing to trade off (with Linner’s permission of course!)
As you can see, these four cars already have DLM’ed equivalents in my collection so the sealed ones are up for grabs if anyone wants them! Thank you so much for this amazing opportunity, Linner, and your generosity should make you a legend in the LaLD community! Thanks for looking, and see you around LaLD!
