Nice finds J, the #9 is hard to find buddy. I’m sure Tim leathers has a silver/grey painted base #9 in his collection.

Thanks Alex, they are play worn but good fill in models for now. Recent group for the yesteryear fans, one great model.

That's the 3rd Stutz like that to turn up recently, depending what's under the seat.
See here.

Good group of Yesteryears, especially with the pre-pro Stutz. The Cadillac looks to be in pretty good shape. Shame about the Spyker's bent windshield frame.

A few recent additions into the collection, MB66 Coach with a wheel error and yellow base. Prepro Superking Plymouth Duster. All white MB20 4x4 jeep and a MB74 Daimler bus with Cyprus airways label which I have not come across before which was in a nice cheap job lot. :J

Does the base identify it as a Duster? If so, then it's a goof by Lesney...the Plymouth Duster is a sporty version of the Valiant compact car, and the Plymouth SUV is the Trail Duster. Regardless, that's a good find, and I've no idea how you manage to find so many pre-pro models!

The base says Plymouth trail duster, this one was lucky as I had just been looking at Charlie’s amazing collection of super kings and he has one with a black canopy.

Interesting job lot of Yesteryears here, one caught my eye which just needed closer inspection. J

Another Stutz with the early seat? Not a bad lot overall; the Y4-3 and Y16-1 look pretty good. Shame that the Y15-1 has lost a fender; perhaps it could donate a tire to complete the Y7-2?
