Hi all. I'm also hunting for these with and without "NEW" G type boxes. Some of the latter are tricky to get. Johnny Pimp, you seem to list 30 pairs in existence. I only know of 28, being : 03A - 06A - 08b - 10A - 18A - 19b - 21A - 22b - 23A - 24A - 25A - 29b - 34A - 35A - 36b - 38A - 42A...

Thanks, Jason.

Plenty more in your collection that I'd like to own!

Gene, this red Ferrari looks like a cracker! A beautiful model that I would be psyched to have in my collection. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Congratulations! Two questions: 1. in the photo, the glazing looks to be slightly smoked. Is this an optical illusion and is this typical for the red Ferraris? 2. The...

This one is also on Christians site and I think it is owned by Jim Gallegos, is it like this John? It could be, Rob. Although mine appears to be a shade darker and doesn't have labels. These may have been removed but there isn't any trace of them at all. http://i508.photobucket.com/albums/s329/matc...

Cheers, Alex!

Can't have you finding all the good ones can we?

A good spot, Rob!

I've got a colour trial 62 Rat Rod Dragster in dark red which I've seen a few of over the years.

Thanks, Hugh.

I thought the same until Rob showed the photo above. It's a dead ringer for it, purple windows and all!

I feel like I've had quite a successful 2017 up to now. I'm not sure if I've been fortunate or simply looking harder. Although narrowly outside my collecting sphere, this pre-production 51d Citroen S.M. was too nice a find to turn down: - http://i508.photobucket.com/albums/s329/matchboxforsale/1-DSC...

I'm very pleased to have found this 3c Mercedes Benz-Binz Ambulance: - http://i508.photobucket.com/albums/s329/matchboxforsale/1-DSCN2510_zpsyjycb09r.jpg http://i508.photobucket.com/albums/s329/matchboxforsale/2-DSCN2511_zps1qxajg7i.jpg Nick's code 12 with thin wheels and wide arches.

Very nice John. I was fortunate to pick one up somtime ago. I can't really see any turquoise in it, but I'll have another look in natural light. This is a nice casting and the colour shades display well. That's three very noticeable shades you have, John. I think mine matches your lightest model an...
