Big Trak......

.....and if you were very lucky, you also had 'Transport' to go with it, which was the Trailer.

I got one for my 4th Birthday and someone f*cked over it at my Birthday party, destroying it. We never could get another one as they were THE toy to have back then.

Considering that Toy was launched in around 1979, I'm showing my age!!!

My Mum replaced it with a Radio Controller Seddon Atkinson Articulated Lorry, but it wasn't even close Im afraid. I still have that in the loft, along with the Panda Bear Walker that I learnt to walk on and have a scar on my chin from clubbing it on the wheel!!!

fook me ya can remember that far back ya old fart

oh and since i copied your cps drilling idea i rememeber you saying the cps its a little long for the conversion, well i found that on the one i done and now i belive evil franky has solved the issue, the later 92 cps from a cvh efi engine is shorter and will solve it

just incase you had a long line of washers like me to space it out

also seems a few others are now doing this route too, you seem to have started a fashion trend
