Hi didn’t realise until other day there is foden lorry drawings still about , anyone want to sell a copy ?

Thanks

Just giving this one a bump

Anyone ???

I’m after c or d type drawings please , I’ll pay for a copy

It may help if you clarify what scale you have in mind. AFAIK there are drawings in 3,4.5,6 & 9" scale. Terry Morris did the original 3" drawings and they are pretty good. Available from Reeves & Blackgates among others.

My apologies . 9 inch or full size please

6 inch D type drawings ?

I have some full size but they are worn and I am still using them occasionally. The main collection is with the Cheshire County Archive and they will sell you copies.

Anyone got any 3 inch drawings for the foden lorry they want to sell ?

Or I’ll pay for a copy !!

Thanks

Anyone ?

This thread reminds me that I need to contact whoever holds the Foden traction engine records. I am specifically interested in Foden No.2012 an 8NHP engine that survives in Tasmania. I need more details of this engine or type of engine for an article for the RLS Journal.
Thank you.

Paul the Chestershire archive had my build records and they have some drawings.

I only want a copy of 3 inch drawings ��

With respect, all you need is a full size drawing and a scale ruler? I know this is not going to provide manufacturing information but it where all scale engines start from.

Steve Lake has a set of 3inch drawings, I gave them to him. But I don't have his currently contact details or if he still lives in Tewksbury or not.

Is he on here ?

He used to be, but don't know if he still is. I think he went by steamer77 or something like that. I sold him a 3inch Foden D type and gave him the drawings as well around 10 years ago I would of thought.

I tried to email Stephen but the works email is no more.

I think the company he used to work for is no longer in business. I don't know where he is working now or if he still lives in Tewksbury. He used to be a member of a club who hold a rally on Tewksbury Rugby Club for miniatures. But I cannot rember what they are called. I just remembered MSRVS there called

Thanks guys much appreciated. I’ve just found the website you mentioned so I’ve dropped them
Message . Fingers crossed !!

Just giving this a bump , thanks upfront !!
