Thank you all for the kind words.
Arnold not having to track down parts for a change is a big plus (https://emoji.tapatalk-cdn.com/emoji106.png).

A heckuva a trio of Mamods.

Congratulations!

Have to agree with you Tommy .... those earlier models are definitely far better looking!

Really nice additions to your collection Tommy..!!

They both have a very classy look about them.

Thanks Nick, it's a lot better than the green DV1 or these offerings.

Very nice trio there Tommy, I particularly like the double decker bus, I always thought it a really good looking steamer.

Thanks Bruce, the new ones are not as nice. Chrome cowl, wheels are red and silver, and
I don't think they offer the DV2 anymore.

great looking engines/rollers!  I assume you are going to keep them unfired?

Oh yeah.

I always thought these were the best looking Mamods and being the older models,
they don't have the chrome engine cowl. As far as the Delivery Van (DV2)goes, I like
this navy blue with the white top better than the DV1, which is green with a black top.
            This one looks like a Paddy Wagon.
Both are unfired with their boxes, funnels, and burner's. I knew they were going to be
kind of big but I didn't know how much until they showed up.
My Wilesco Showman engine was close by for a comparison.
