Notes
First issued during 1962, this model is in original condition, complete with an intact, red and yellow detachable canopy, driver. The Ford Thunderbird car is finished in white with a bright deep yellow and silver interior. ‘TAXI’ and ‘BERMUDA’ transfers perfect throughout.
Spring suspension on bright shaped spun hubs. Well-shaped original tyres.
Note the small paint miss behind the driver’s seat. A few little edge marks mostly on the yellow top edge driver’s side.
The box is complete, feeling crisp. Generally bright, although there is a little sunfading at end flaps. Period shop stamp on the interior surface of a large end flap. Corgi Club Membership Form.
Not an easy model to find, particularly with the red and yellow canopy.
