A Matchbox MB-57 Wild Life Truck - Not So Wild

Not so wild, because the lion is gone and I was thinking what to do with the empty back of the car... I could not get another lion, nor a canopy, so I should place there something else.

The Rola-Matics function didn't work, so it could deliver a usual load, like boxes and crates. I got them from my former H0 accessories. They fit well to the 1/64 scale models, too!

Fleur Boutique: Matchbox Lesney MB-06 Ford Pick-up

Sometimes I buy cars not for restoration, not for my collection, but for spare parts. This happened to this RW Ford pick-up truck, because I needed its windscreen and interieur. It had no radiator grills and the canopy was missing, too. But when I had the chance to get that radiator, I decided to renew it, in bright yellow colour with red windscreen (from another Ford F-100 Pick-up)! This Ford was not for my collection, but for sale.

Even another identity should be given. Having got no canopy, it should deliver something... But what? First I tried with small boxes or barrels, but they didn't really fit to the cargo hold, so I had to go on with the ideas.

Later I found bigger open boxes in HO scale, three of them exactly fit into the space. I thought, it will deliver flowers!

And then the truck got unique stickers, so everyone knew, that it works for Jane's Fleur Boutique!
