Absolutely beautiful as is!!! Looks like it'll be a relatively easy cleanup. All polished up and your set will be a serious piece of eye candy.

via Dunedin (not Christchurch as i stated originally). I have a theory that many hard to sell models/colors etc were dumped here in the 60 and 70s. The country was starved of good imports and we'd take anything. I understand this color didn't sell to well. I also have a rare Vespa scooter that were dumped here big numbers because they wouldn't sell in Europe - now very desireable.

I know of another set in this finish that was sold new here and have heard of another one floating around too.

I was just having some Fun Blair.....Mikey

I've been following along too......very nice score on these. Glad they made the trip ok too. Emjoy them!

Whoa!!! I had to take 3 looks to make sure I was seeing what I was seeing! Nice kit!

I think the pink oyster pearl or Rogers pink ripple are the best. Wonder if you can bring out the color a little better after a little cleaning. Anyway, congrats. That's a long time to wait ... and worry !!

CONGRATS !!! these are on my Bucket list !!!1 May I share a lil pink as well??? No they aren't Rogers either[FONT="Comic Sans MS"] SlingerLeedys!![/FONT]

Larry, I think the color is quite good, maybe a bit faded on the top side of the BD which is covered in dust too. My orange dining room is maybe robbing them of some of their vibrancy. It's hard to compete with our dining room where vibrancy is concerned although I reckon Joeyboom's kit gives it a run for it's money. That's proper pink that isflower

Ok....had me worried!

Between the Slingerlands and SlingerLeedy's, we're seeing some nice finishes today! Keep 'em coming.
