Re: K38 Gus's Gulper
The white example was a short run, not easy to find especially in mint/near mint and almost always at a premium.

Re: K38 Gus's Gulper
Thank's Charlie, that's nice to know, so if I see one, I'll buy it outright to secure it for future investment...

Hi Charlie
Just received another white model and noticed it has spiro front wheels the same as yours, my other 2 shown above have dot-dash wheels. Have you noticed this before .
