I have quite a few 1:64 scale MINIs. I will snap a few shots when I get home. I think I have all of the Johnny Lighnings except any of them that are "White Lightning" these have white wheels are are worth more!!

Ginger · Nov 21st, 2003, 04:20 PM

OK I've had a really long thing about and I'd like to complete my set. Anyone got a blue and Red model (boxed!) they want to sell and arrange carridge to the UK for.
Thanks

awww those are the two that i dont have extra of... i have an extra white one.

Chadwell · Nov 21st, 2003, 07:25 PM

I have an extra blue Johnny Lightning (and a white one too). Will be happy to send the blue one you need to the UK for $10 US including shipping. I only paid $5 for it and costs around $5 to ship something that small. Just let me know by PM if you want it.

jimskater · Nov 23rd, 2003, 04:20 AM

Tavis,

How much?

Jim

tavis1 · Nov 23rd, 2003, 06:39 AM

JIMSKATER, You were still intrested? I didn't think you were because your last PM message to me before the rally at Long Beach was that you would get back to me and you never did so I thought you found a set or lost intrest. I might have a buyer from Lithuania and I already PM'd him on details. I will have to see how it pans out with him. I'm so sorry. If it falls through you will be the first one I contact. Sorry once agian I just want to be fair. Please understand if the roles were reversed I would do the same for you. I like being a man of my word wich is rare in todays socity and I'm proud of it.

tavis,

It's totally my fault, and I understand completely if you sell them to someone else.

Okay, I didn't quite understand what pocketrocket was talking about, till I noticed these two auctions on eBay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tegory=19 045

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tegory=19 045

(I'm not sure if you can still view the auctions after they end)

I have both cars in 'standard' form in my collection. In the case of the two auctions above, the IJ White MINI has white wheels instead of silver, and the UJ Cooper has white tires instead of the standard black. I guess that's what 'White Lightning' refers to. Look at the bids, those are insane amounts of money!!!

EBMCS03 · Nov 24th, 2003, 08:20 AM

OMG! that white one is going for $47!!!!! DUDE I have an extra one... i should sell it for $50! LOL...

jimskater · Nov 24th, 2003, 01:31 PM

Tavis,

Not a problem. Though if they're getting that kind of money for some of these cars, I may have to hope that the Lithuanian buys 'em. They're moving out of my price range.

paa100 · Nov 24th, 2003, 01:53 PM

I'm not Lithuanian...... I just live here... you can find those cars on ebay for non-crazy prices though.... You just need to look.......

paa100 · Nov 24th, 2003, 02:06 PM

Hmmmm.... my last post was trying to be helpful...... but now I read it it doesnt...... but it was meant to ....... try seraching for italian job on ebay then look at diecast models.... hey presto... sorry to dissapoint you..... but I really would like to give Tavis' cars a home.... here in Lithuania..... :-))

paa100 · Nov 24th, 2003, 02:07 PM

or even searching

EBMCS03 · Nov 24th, 2003, 07:18 PM

Jim find a Red and Blue one... if u can I'll throw in my white one for u. Dont know if u would want just a white one alone... if so u can have it. I really dont know what to do with my white stand alone one. I almost opened it to play with it cuz it was just there.

jimskater · Nov 25th, 2003, 12:28 AM

paa100,

Not a problem. They're going to a deserving and caring home. If I had been that concerned about getting them, I would have let tavis know.

Chris, no worries.

Ginger · Dec 1st, 2003, 04:15 PM

I completed my set yesterday! Was in Brighton yesterday, found the blue and red Mini in Modelzone - well pleased! Think I paid too much for the first one though, the other two cost me £3.99 each.

EBMCS03 · Dec 1st, 2003, 10:33 PM

Smokey 4 · Dec 1st, 2003, 10:50 PM
