Yeah right Hugh, thanks for the info. oops, sorry
There are beige metal crates on my
29a (Code1 with metal wheels).
(I made the tongue test)

But nevertheless the metal crates are in the color beige.

Interesting Mike, can you show a base shot?

Hi Johnboy.
Thank you for your interest.
send these 3 images.
Greetings Mike

For this topicI studied many of my models.

I found this example from the 14d iso grifo coupe.
see the color-change of the interior.

The extent to plastic changes over time.

interesting

The base looks like it might be light in a few small places. It looks dirty or affected by environmental factors/nicotine etc. Have you tried cleaning it?

Johnboy. I have cleaned the model 29a.
See the pictures:

I think contamination of the metal boxes, over time.

This theme me very busy. Also found therefore
the iso grifo model with the color-difference.

Greetings Mike

Thanks for checking Mike, the ISO needs the tools

But the ISO model, an interesting example
that aging of plastic differences.

Hi Mike.
The ISO is sunfaded, the floor beneath the dashboard is still in the original colour, compare the top of the seat to the floor.

That Iso is a perfect example of plastic Fading Mike! Thank you for digging that one out and showing it here. I have similar models, but not as different as yours looks. I have a shelf with re-paints, sunfades, and even some bad Fakes I have bought off E Bay. I enjoy looking at them, but I still buy odd models that turn out like your when the doors are opened or I carefully check under them. E Bay pictures would not show those blue floors, but I still like this Iso Mike. Thanks Again for showing it here......kwakers
