Here is a superfast banger and it's yours Taniwha!
Gavin showed me this model at the weekend. I'll let him comment on it.

I have many bangers, not sure how valuable they are though. Here is a superfast favourite of mine.

Now this I do like, being a very early 'Superfast' production model with 'Pre-Pro' wheels. Jason, any chance you can supply the wheel mould numbers, thank's.

Hi Kevin,
Only one wheel looks like it has the number 11 which looks more like it was done by hand, the rest have no number at all.

Thank's 'J' you are a star.

If I remember some other 'Pre-Pro' wheels shown by "tjlglass" had hand scored (in the tooling), low numbers.

Very nice beater J

One of those cranes is in slightly better condition than the other. I think the one on the left is OK - it just looks very well loved and a few of us have looked at it in hand now and no-one has spotted anything of concern. I'll hang onto it until a nicer one comes along I don't know if it's that valuable if what I paid for it is anything to go by!

I really like J's Pininfarina - that would be a dream find for me!

Cheers,
Gavin

Thanks Gavin,
Have you taken off the rear axle cover, thats the best way to check on these cranes.
I waited a long time for one of these and then 2 came along very close together. A great model in any condition.
