Mnnnnn now wait a minute Ghosty! What if you had to choose between Matthias's 'Narrow Wheeled', 'Low-Arch' and side 'Trim-Stripped' #24 Silver Shadow and my Minty #69 Silver Shadow Drop top with the 'Long Seat' which one would you choose? Tough i bet.....wait a minute i've just thought of a great new thread Desert Island Diecast!!!!

Ah! now you've done it "Motorman" what a decision...#69 'Drop-Top' with the 'Long Seat' moulding...or...#24 Silver Shadow saloon with those delicious HTF details...............ARGGGGGGGGGGG! I don't know! what would other members choose?

I may have to go away for a while and think very hard about this, in the meantime, here is some music...

I think it's a shame not more members join this Tread rare, and sought Superfast models.

Lovely stuff as usual Matthias, i especially like the SF#73 Mercury with the Wildcat label, a rare issue and your looks in superb condition. This is one variation i do not have but would like to add to my collection. Well done mate!
