Bob showed some 'Yesteryear' Y-7 Rolls-Royce models from a collection in Switzerland...

...here are 7 versions of what appear to be the same model, trust me, they ain't.

The first model numbered 11, implies there are 10 more models before this one, in my listings there are, but 5 of them have the very rare (there's that word again!), Yellow seats, grille or both and I have none of them in my collection to show you... :cry:

Looks like the variations are in the steering wheel (early metal vs. later plastic) and the one second from left appears to have darker fenders. Danged if I can pick out any other differences, though!

One axle looks copper, and the other looks like unfinished pot-metal.

The right one has a brighter red, the seats on left are kind of charcoal while the right ones look black... :?

But maybe thats all only the flash

The one on the right looks to have a thicker vertical bar in the bottom windshield, but that could be a trick of the camera.

I thougth that also, but i guess thats flash. You can see the darker part of the bar on the left one, when you look closely.
