Title: RED Greco bird at Ishibashi c.$500 + shipping
Post by: Aussie Mark on November 24, 2010, 04:06:42 PM
At this price I'm guessing the red is a refin, as I've only ever seen sunburst, black and white in the Greco birds.

You can see what looks like the SN on the headstock though...

Good spot - in that case I guess this is merely a hens teeth rare colour for Greco, so it's even more of a bargain !

I've got the near twin to that one but even cooler...red with black hardware. Mine is definitely original factory paint and one of the later near Gib clones before the factory switched over to making Orvilles. It's actually a pretty nice TBird.
