Thanks John
Does that mean I need to go through the boxes again and place pics of the ones I thought was interesting I was going to start on the boxes with Windows in but not sure what ones first and what to look for

I don't know what others think, but you've captured a comprehensive record of everything so far Steve, it might be good to fill in the few recent gaps with photos if it's fairly easy to do. If there's anything that you're not sure about in terms of interest, I would just post pics anyway, because you never know.

Pictures much easier to view now. Well done for persevering with the technology.

Lots of duplicates there Steve, the clear glass version of the Superfast #45b BMW 3.0 CSL is harder to find compared to the standard green glass and being more collectable will command a higher value.

All these Superfast are in lovey minty condition by the looks of it therefore still attractive to collectors.

Yes loads the same but I can see why now with the variation in them

Lots and lots of very nice Superfast models Steve, looks like the #20a Lamborghini Marzal has been exposed to the sun at some point in its life given the excess fading to the paint work.

Ha ye I noticed that and I was talking to the old chap the other night he mentioned he got a model from a local shop that had been in the window she let him have it free due to the state of the colour that must had been the one
I will move onto the others next but looking at the spare room it will take a few years to get through it all and I don't think I will ever get through the others in the loft in fact I know I not I would need three more spare rooms to put them in
Thanks Steve

I had no idea that there was still such a huge task ahead Steve. I can't remember what was said earlier, is the old chap's intention to sell these off at an auction house?
