--25u Ford camion citerne 'Esso' [Ford Tanker 'Esso'] (1950-1953)

In Roulet's last book on page 288 it is stated that there are four variations of this truck.

Here are the first three, the fourth one is supposed to have a base plate without the notch for the tow hook bos.

Can a member confirm this fourth variation with a picture similar to the above ones.

Hi Jacques, I simply do not have this model (although I'd love to own one), so I cannot help you. Below a scan of an old picture which I made of a friend's example, a nice version with white tyres. Not very realistic, but as sympathetic as i.a. the early French fire engines.

Best regards Jan

Hi all,
Sadly I don't have one either, I adore these French Commercials, and one day I'll get a few, but with no end in sight to my Liverpool Dinky wants list (currently 260 ish) I don't know when!
