Norm Marshall Model T Ford Ute
After making a Norm Marshall Model T Ford Ute for some people who asked for one,
I decided to make one for myself & the grandsons here at home.
I have 3 for myself at home; 1 for my "canuck" friend and 1 I've sold;
but I have 1 more in parts ready to start building.
I hope others are encouraged to also have a go at these toys.
They are an easy build, strong & robust giving heaps of fun to little boys & girls.
Cheers, crowie

Thanks Artme, No frtish but they are a great toy to make and you can personalize each one with little modifications. The ute is my own design.
Ross, I forgot 1 which I gave to a mate for his granson so that'll be 7 once I finish the one in the shed. It'd be nice to think that I could start selling them with orders but I don't want the pressure. It's more fun making them & giving them away.
Cheers, crowie

Pete, What a great toy for all the kid's. They look terrific & solid. Almost unbreakable.
You have done well. Have you thought about ebonising the wheels for a slightly different look. Just a thought.

Peter,
You might need to make a garage for them all to park in. Sure the grandson would love that. Maybe a supersized version of you matchox size one.

I'd be shot if I were to make a toy garage big enough to house the Model T Fords.
As it is I have run out of room for what I've already made; though thank Bret & Derek for the suggestion - it's been filed....lol.
Thank Jim for for the suggestion on the wheels, we have Steve's ebonising thread in the best of the best toymaking section; I'll have to think on it.
Cheers, crowie
