C229
Corgi 229 Chevrolet Corvair. Near mint plus/boxed. Pale LAVENDER-BLUE blue issue. From The Monty Calme Collection.
Notes
The classic 60’s car has a distinctive, pale lavender-blue paint finish (not quite as ‘blue’ a shade as the flat spun issue) with a lemon, vacuum-formed interior and white blind at the rear window. Boot opens to reveal a detailed engine. Shaped spun wheels with suspension. Fine tread original tyres are well-shaped.
Little casting mark on one door and a fine white mark on the roof.
The pictorial card box is really crisp, bright and complete. Only the most minor wear (couple of creases). . As-new feel. Period price label on one box face. Corgi Club Membership Form.
