    Are These Rare?

    A friend of mine just bought this. You reckon this might be a little bit rare?

    Probably almost as rare as a Commercial Controls! Nice find! First and probably last time I've seen one!

    I would tell your friend the lineout means it's defective. But being such a good friend you will swap him a good one.

    Can you get other pictures? Markings, parts. etc.

    Nice find.

    I have seen one other. It was for sale on GB about 2 years ago. It looked like a reparked restoration. That is the rarest of them all! PI is on a roll here lately!!

    Yep, I believe he must have traded his new car in on it.

    I just realized how much i am out of you guy's league.... I ain't in the minor league, I am stuck in little league (maybe even T-ball)! I definitely am not worthy!

    No way I could ever dream of collecting things on that level.

    All I can say is "WOW!"



    Are you sure that the rear sight isn't fake?????
