OK JCB afficianados what year(s) is the new JCB 3C from Corgi. It's an early one , has a cab door ,exposed filters and the hydraulic ram on roof

Hi Craig .. its based on a 1964 JCB 3C with side door, and the "ram" on the roof is the spring for the back window opening , like this one with the window open

Thanks Martin.
Would have preferred a MK11 but mustn't grumble !

Well Craig .. wait just a another few weeks and see what will come along


Martyn

Have you had anything to do with the Corgi models Martin ?

Oh no Craig, i had nothing to do with what corgi have made .. 1/50th scale is really too small, but i belive the corgi model was to come as a load for a low loader, but they cancelled the low loader and brought the dirty 3C out on its own


Martyn

Ill be gettin one of those! Will be in my model firms vintage collection haha!

Sold a box full of models lately for what I thought was a fair price . The only model I didn't check out price wise was this one as I thought they were fairly common.
DOH they are now actually selling for between £70 and £100 on Ebay as they are rare. So if you have one be aware
