It's Charlie Mack's "Collecting Regular Wheels 1953 - 1969" book - it shows four different chrome plated Colors of the Iso.SMS88 wrote:Some red SF Isos exist,one was shown on MCCH years ago.A photo of a group of these spectrflame Isos appeared in a Schiffer book on Matchbox,all with blue seats,cant recall which book it was...... Ed Force perhaps, cars done for Bronner??
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??SMS88 wrote:Nice Iso,only seen photos of these before in spectraflame colours -worth every penny I think!
