Notes

Issued between 1965-68, in various colour finishes, this attractive American car has the rarest colour finish i.e. kingfisher blue – displaying well with this most distinctive of colour finishes.
This particular colour finish seems to have been especially difficult for Corgi – and is nearly always flaky. This example has a few little flakes at bonnet front edge. With a fine sheen, this model comes complete with both seated figures. Light blue interior has a little minor discolouration in places. May be possible to improve with a careful clean. Faint rub mark on the bonnet caused by contact with the packing ring (visible under intense light only).
Deep grey base, spoked wheel detail and fine original treaded tyres.

The pictorial box is crisp and brightly-coloured, with no tears or graffiti. Comes with the original card packing ring and Corgi Club Membership Form. Period price label at an end flap.

Rare to come to the market place.
