Among my late father's bits and pieces were a few plans from a 1940s/50s firm called Modelcraft. These gave all the parts needed, drawn to size, and made up into representative models of assorted road vehicles, mainly buses and commercial lorries. Research shows that there were quite a few, among them a number of cars of the 50s.
Did anyone on here use these designs, and has anyone got copies of the car ones that I could borrow? I'm interested in seeing how they would turn out, as they would make a change from todays mass produced items.
See this page for a full (I think?) list:

The close bracket was missed off the end of the link. I have corrected it now.
Brian, very kind to pass the link. I have managed to work out a complete list of the vehicle plans and even obtained some through on-line auctions, but the ones for the cars seem quite scarce. Those are the ones I'm trying to track down.
