J - Those are nice finds. Goes to show how many variations are really out there. I think they are prepros, correct?

Ghosthunter, as requested a picture of the base of the yellow model.

I have the same two as nearlymint.

Thank you Charlie. It looks like it is the same base used on full production models implying the yellow body is a trial colour maybe, for a civilian car version similar to the lime green issues.

Hi Charlie,
Recently added this one with 5 spoke hubs, labels are discoloured but the model is quite good. J

Jason, very nice model with blue windows and model with 5 spoke hubs. I must find it somewhere.
