Hello Reg, yes, you have secured yourself a #24c, with narrow 'Superfast' wheels and side 'Trim-Strip', well done! not only that, it has the low rear wheel arch!! all we need know are the four wheel mould numbers and weather they are all smooth or does some have tread patterns on the outer edge.

Oh! and lastly, a detail photo (from the side), of the 'Hinge-Arms' while the boot-lid is open, I think that will do for now.........Yes that's it... :lol:

Looking at the paint finish, I fear a repaint.

Hi Reg, I'm not a superfast buff but were you thinking the Group 6 is a flat green under the repaint or possibly a wide arch/thin wheel BMC?

yes Ghosty that's the one as JB says likely to be a repaint but the lot was cheap enough to have a punt :D
the 24c has smooth wheels on the front right hand is 19G left is 24G , rear wheels both have tread right hand is 9D left is 42D
hope this helps
