>speaking of those, what in the world is the deal >with this? >http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3113046355&category=1175 That is a very rare 'matchbox oddity'. I have not seen one listed for a while. Last time they were selling at about $275. Not sure why this one is 3 times that. Matchbox went from red to purple the same time they went fro regular wheel to superfast wheels (circa 1969). They changed most wheels/base first as stock was being changed out, so to see a newer body (in purple) on the older base (regular wheel) is rarest version of this car. Go here for more complete detail on versions available. It is popular among MB collectors to try and complete all variations among the cars. http://www.vwdiecast.anomalous.net/variations.htm my site is in desperate need of updating (not likely in this decade!) This is the one version I do not own (for obvious reasons). -John R. 69 Fastback's __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
