Beavertail
Part of Oxford Diecast's December release programme was a Mark 1 Ford Transit with a beavertail recovery body, and this one was quickly given a repaint to join my Mostyn's Garage fleet. The flat front indicates that this Transit only has the 1.7-litre V4 petrol engine, which must make it a little underpowered for recovery work, but all of the vehicles owned by Mostyn's are petrol powered, as was still common in the 1970s. The Morris Minor on the back is a Classix model.
