I've got a few beaters of this model waiting to be restored, but this is the first one in displayable condition I've seen for such a low price.

Been cutting back on die cast a good bit to fund my 1:1 project, but occasionally something pops up on ebay that one just cannot resist!!! A Corgi Ferrari 250LM for 4 bucks shipped... One of the tires is about to come apart, but it's very presentable otherwise. I like vintage die cast in this sort of condition, gives them character.

Scored this little gem for $6.99 on eBay! Not in the best shape, but for a variation as uncommon as the grey tire and green window E Type I'll take it!

Had some very nice finds from another forum today.
Two cement mixer variations:

And my best find in a while, two color variations of the Iso Grifo! Am I right in saying that the lighter color is hard to find?

I think these are great looking models and the light and dark display nicely together. It may be a location thing, but I've found the lighter blue to be less common rather than hard to find. This is an older picture with a mid blue that I found a few years back. I guess it's the photo, but can you confirm the interior colours on yours, (very pale blue is the norm and white is rare).
