Just bought this 1/87 scale Matchbox Motorhome.
link Why do I think its 1/87? Well, here is photo of real (not Matchbox) 1/87 motorhome and car.
Now have a look at these photos
I wish Matchbox to make truck based on this Motorhome, so I can place car in there. This Motorhome have some furniture inside wich block my car from getting in. Of course I alway can make a conversion :)
I need to repaint right car… |

I'd like one that could be used for 28mm to accompany this:

Maybe the scale of the car is off, but the truck in the first pic looks just a little too big. Regardless, you're correct that the matchbox motor home (and many other matchbox trucks) are great for 15mm. Also, it's definitely time for a conversion! If you have a dremel it's not hard to grind out the rivets on the bottom of matchbox/hotwheels cars, then they just fall apart and you can do whatever you want to them |

Why do I think its 1/87? Well, here is photo of real (not Matchbox) 1/87 motorhome and car. Are you sure that's a shot of a real, full sized vehicle? I suspect it's a larger model truck  John T |
