Notes
Certain to raise the pulse rate….we are delighted to offer for sale one of the most sought after Corgi models!
A close to mint, all original example of this classic racing car. Vibrant bright red finish, lemon-yellow seats, intact blue windscreen, racing number 1 (few tiny nicks), headlights, flat spun wheels.
So rarely seen in any condition!
The baseplate has a few little tarnished spots (minor). Few tiny marks only to the paint finish. A lovely example, and this particular colour finish is missing from many Corgi collections.
The early blue picture box is complete with all end flaps intact. Uniform light grubbiness and a period pencilled price and the shopkeeper has written the word ‘RED’ nearby.
Comes complete with the original card packing piece.
An irresistible Corgi model!
