Default Worlds Largest Haul of GT's Found
A Private collection of GT's, Not HO's, found in a shed in Sth Africa. Not a lot of details otherwise.
They were sold as Fairmont GT's. A few Shakers. Seems genuine enough??
A gold Mine none the less!

As an aside, a nice HT Munro in the mix also!








Be interesting to hear the real story??????

Mike
