This Lime Iso Griffo pre-pro is quite interesting and the 1st ive seen in this color.The price seemed right too.

It's Charlie Mack's "Collecting Regular Wheels 1953 - 1969" book - it shows four different chrome plated Colors of the Iso.

Mick what was the reason for theses spectraflame colours not being introduced to the standard range. Was the paint process application difficult, or to expensive, or did were they just not in fashion enough to be considered potetntial good sellers??

I have never seen these before, and that Iso Grifo looks magic!!

Bloody hell deep pockets needed!!!!!

Alex I'm surprised you found it expensive knowing your ability to push the boat out when making a purchase #33 with tow guide springs to mind :D :D :D
