Yes it does have amber windows

I would say it's a repainted one but it was the colour of it that made me look at the listing and spot the high pins
I'll post better pictures when they arrive

Excellent!

well they arrived today 2 high pin cranes #13 wrecker vnm with a decal oops and a few nice SF
as i suspected a couple of repaints

Those cranes are a great find Reg. As Greg said, they could have been together since they left the factory (that would be a nice thought) or possibly they were in a collection gathered over time that someone has unwittingly split up/sold on. These are not easy to find so hooking one is a great job, but two is downright greedy

Two variants of the high pin crane Reg - forward facing hook and rear facing hook - you'll have to keep both now!

Cheers,
Gavin

The rear facing one is damaged looks like it's been used as a teething chew that's why it faces back

How about the amber window wrecker, It looks recoverable, Are the windows ok?.

windows aren't too bad I might try to clean it unless someone else on here wants it for a little project maybe a swap for a nice two tone hatra

Those 'High Pin' cranes make-up for the lack of Firenza models in your collection, eh Reg...

Ghosty.

I'd swap one for a nice blue fierenza
