Four Wheeled Vehicles, HRCA Vans
The HRCA 25th Anniversary (1969-94) vans are of special interest, having first been advertised in the HRCA Journal 267 (June 1993) by Les Horton, as a joint enterprise with Bernard Ridgley, Les Horton providing the printed body sides and ends. The next advertisement was HRCA Journal 272 (November 1993) when Les Horton advertised complete vans for 40 pounds, or sides and ends only, for 15 pounds, to fit any standard Hornby van chassis. Journals 276, 278 and 283 contained advertisements for the same van by Bernard Ridgley, with the final advertisement saying Offer Closes 31st December. Those advertisements which mention colour specify gloss blue, no mention being made of white sides or roof/chassis colour. White/red examples have been noted in both Horton and Ridgley boxes.
A certificate issued with the vans acknowledges the vans as a joint production by John Metcalfe, Anthony Funnell, John Hughes, Bernard Ridgley and Rob Horton.
