OK so it used to almost be a XII with a block bound neck! We'll take it!

I would sell my soul to Bart Simpson for that Firemist Silver XII. Wonder where that is now. How much would that thing be? Has to be very few out there.

That is actually Blue Ice Metallic.

It was sold by Olivias a couple of years ago. I spent quite a while trying to track it down . . . no luck so far!!

This one is IBM? I felt like I saw this in the 'vintage examples of FMS'.

Yes this one is BIM! They can look very similar.
I have yet to see a factory original Inca Silver XII . . . but someone might have one.

Thanks chaps, I saw the thread & that my kitchen was already featured!

I'm afraid that I'm a bit of a "lurker" these days as my health hasn't been great for some time so I'm a bit distracted.

Greetings to all & keep up the great work here.
