Jason, I have just checked all my #32 Maseratis and none of them have a metallic green base.

It is a known variant however, infact Charlie Mack has one listed in his variation table (variation 7, Burgandy body, Metallic green base, "8" label, no tow hook, 5 arch wheels).

It is still quite a rare find J, nice one mate.

Thanks MM, just added these into the collection.
Another nice Pontiac, just love these models.
Bright yellow jeep, first one I have found or seen in the flesh.

If YOU have only just found the bright lemon yellow Jeep, then I sure feel extra lucky to have found a mint one as well!
And the darkest purple Pontiac is one I go goofy for too.
Had to find 5 to fully load a blue and gold DAF Carrier with them.

Amazing thread!!!

Yes, a very nice display indeed. (bordering on the greedy )

Well you two can just eat my dust!!!

Seriously though, I DO feel like a bit of a show-boat, but 3 of them were lucky buys and on the cheap side, and even the other two were a bit under market value.

I've always been like that, when there's something I'm crazy for, I get a fleet of 'em. Even 1:1s. (junkers to most people)
Transitionals are my thing, and there are 3 castings I have at least 5 of....more like 7 or 8.
This Poncho, the red SF Ferarri, and the yellow Superfast Miura.
Only one of the Miura's is real, and it has the tow guide. (Dumb luck!!!)
The others are all base swaps with RW bodies.

Recent additions to the collection, very pleased with all 3 models.
K38 Gus,s Gulper in white, was hoping to have a spare but my playworn model is different to this boxed one.
K23 Mercury Commuter in white with roof rack, nice crossover model I think similar to the yellow one I found with roof lights.
MB31 Volksdragon with clear windows, really struggled with this one.
All in very good condition as well. J
