Corgi 339
Corgi 339 Austin Monte Carlo Mini Cooper 'S'. Near mint plus/boxed. Cast wheels issue in plain card box. With model specific leaflet. From the 'Exclusively Mini' Collection.
Notes
A desirable Corgi Monte Carlo Mini model (Austin) in bright red and white finish with complete racing numbers 177 on both doors, chrome roof rack (no rubs) and two spare wheels. Suspension on all four cast wheels. Six jewelled headlights/spotlights (note that Austin Mini models have smaller headlights – compared to the Morris issues, other casting differences too). Monte Carlo labels front are complete at the front, very small nick to the rear. Front number plates are intact. Rear number plates has a tiny nick to the lower edge. Few (probably factory assembly marks at headlight rims). Tiny casting blemish on bonnet.
Nice to see that the white roof does not have nibbles/chips at edges, so presents very well.
The scarce plain non-picture card box has deep colours on crisp, clean card. Silky feel shows that this box has rarely been handled. Very small storage edge scuff.
Also includes the 1967 Monte Carlo B.M.C. leaflet detailing the story of the rally. Club Membership Form on reverse.
