hello, I have ordered my 1-75 collection using also your site and the SF variations. I have the three models of photo that i don't understand if are true SF or 1-75 modified.
Someone knows the reply? Thank you

1-75's is a term used to classify the model range of miniatures, by Lesney, which eventually grew to 75 models. The 1-75 range continued well past 1969 with the introduction of Superfast models (which continued to be in the 1-75 range of miniatures).  The term "transitionals" is often used to describe models that remained in production from the Regular Wheel years into the Superfast wheel years (albeit with some modification to the bases and sometimes wheel arches to accommodate the new wheel type). Even the term "transitional" and the meaning of all that it encompass is often debated.

You might get better answers if you more accurately describe what you are asking and remove some of the assumptions and guessing that I would have to do to give an answer which I'm guessing you might be looking for. It would also help to resize your photos for easy viewing. A site member has an easy "how to" do that here: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=21

I resized the pics (I guess Ghosty was busy today lol).

I was just in the process of doing that and couldn't figure what was happening with pictures appearing that I hadn't uploaded

Too funny. I botched up the first upload, reduced the pic but left the background huge so was redoing the redo when you were working on it
