Thank's Guys...
Gerrit, among the Matchbox Silver Shadows display, 2nd picture, the Silver-Grey saloon #24, is that one of your repaints or a genuine factory model, because it looks just like a known 'Pre-Pro' model as shown below.

I think there may be a few customs on display Ghosty, check out the lemon yellow #69 Silver Shadow on the same shelf with super detailing to the rear lights. Looks great in that colour truth be told not unlike your own taste in Rolls Royce body colour........just missing the diamonte!!!

Havent seen this ever before - the well known pre pro was Tippax grey with red seats as shown in original collector catalog photo of whole 1-75 series. Indeed this silver one looks a bit odd - windows look like they have been obstructed by a spun roof rivit which would suggest a custom............GHOSTHUNTER wrote:Thank's Guys...![]()

Its the property of Nigel Cooper (at least when the picture was taken!), and has appeared on 'Befora' and given what details he supplied with it, it is a genuine 'Pre-Pro' because of all the early casting details and to me it looks like the glazing has fell down due to the roof rivet not being worked to secure it.

No Kevin that is not a pre-pro model, that is a nice repaint. I do not have any of those pre-pro models, in many cases I do not trust their authenticity and they are not cheap. The only "special" Matchbox I have is that # 24 with the inside/out real wheel.GHOSTHUNTER wrote:Thank's Guys...![]()
