odd baseplate colour on #8 Wildcat Mustang

Post by SMS88 »

I have seen 2 more smashed beaters with this odd coloured baseplate, a satin mixture of Fiat green , Victor yellow plus thinners - its particularly interesting because this colour is a crossover between pink and orange bodies but hasnt yet been found on any other castings. The spare orange car is available if anyone wants to make any offers for it :geek:
