Berlinetta Bargain

I think I haven't shown the nice shade variation yet that I got some months ago for just about ten dollars. The car in question is on the right hand side in both pictures and I would be inclined to say it's the harder to find blue green variation.
The standard green is for colour contrast to highlight the shade.

It may not be quite as Blue as some we have seen here on our Forum, but it is more blue than any I have handled or owned since I have been collecting. I certainly would be very happy to have one that color in our collection. What a bargain Kiwi78, Thanks for showing it to us. :mrgreen: kwakers

You're right, it all depends on the picture. The Ferrari I'm showing here had only one photo in the auction. This is the original auction photo and I decided to take a chance.

Of course I also have three standard green ones so it's hit and miss. :D

Interestingly I picked up a lone star fiat 2300 which has a blueish green shade to it at NEC

I have shown this in the SF casting show but worth showing again for the colour variations in the SF range.
