Strobist info: Used a Nikon SB25 as fill-in flash to my right triggered by gadget infinity wireless transmitter/receivers.
Back when I first painted 29 in 2018 I took a picture before I put all the branding on, so it only had reg plates and side P&R logos. I think the logos were test print-outs before I did the other five P&R buses, hence why the ones on 29 are a bit smaller than the rest. Unfortunately because I was painting all the P&R buses at the same time their liveries ended up a bit of a rush job because they took ages already and I wasn't prepared to spend any more time on them. I have since corrected the awful doors I painted on this, plus I did later on pick out the Wright logo in white, but it really does need a proper repaint where I can take some time to do it. The only thing is I've decided I don't want to paint the P&R double deckers in the same livery I'm hoping to do the Darts in and the future for the P&R branded deckers is a bit of a mystery at the moment.

Its pretty easy to mistake this Majorette Ford Model A Panel Van for the more better known Matchbox equivalent as they look incredibly similar. Matchbox maximised theirs to the hilt though Majorette of course saw this casting as ideal for promotional work too. Quite a lot of plastic is evident here which makes me think it was deliberately engineered down to a price for Pepsi. Mint and boxed.
The same modules as the previous model are used to make this model. Each module is folded from 2x1 rectangles of Kami [15cm x 7.5cm]. The 5 hearts are simply tied together with Thumb knots. Looks like there are 5 naughty lovers all tied up having an orgy!
This was a remote controlled land yacht that I created and launched on the Ninety Mile Beach in Ahipara
