Thanks ! I think that was a part of a Lemax Christmas accessories set I had used for this image from some years ago. Several of their items can be useful, especially around 1/43 scale.

Thanks ! That was imaged with an actual digital camera and computer, the others are just phone-camera snaps.
It is wonderful how many old Models of Yesteryear and Matchbox diecast replicas hold up over the years and decades.

I still have it too, but I've never turned the headlights on.
