I'm wondering if anybody knows this car or the owner???

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Car-Silver-1978- ... dZViewItem

I'm interested in it, seems to be a little cheaper than the others i've come across...

excellent work Duc. gladyou are listening.

The exact number were 998.

around 400 silver
600 gold.

Due to the fact that they were mostly stripped for their engines and discs, they
are now MUCH rarer. I have compiled a register for these vehicles and i will
be VERY VERY surprised if i manage to find more than 50-60 remaining. they are a rare vehicle.

Why is it that two of the three ls1275's i've come across have red seats in them???

Were they like that factory or is it a coincidence that two people have retrimmed in red?

Hi Ho (silver) cars came with a factory red (wit black vinyl) interior.
Nugget (gold) cars came witha factory brown interior with creamy light tan sort of vinyl.

Are you another Clubby factory flair fan? I am!

Looks like a very nice car, on the money, too.

If the exact number was 998 (how coincidental?), and 600 were Nugget Gold, then wouldn't that make 398 Hi Ho silver?
