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 (one tiny rub) 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 are complete at front and rear. Front and rear number plates are complete front and rear, too. Coupe of mere dots to the paint finish.
Nice to see that the white roof does not have nibbles/chips at edges, so presents very well.
The bright and complete picture card box* has a little age grubbiness and wear and a small tear to an internal end flap.
Also includes the 1967 Monte Carlo B.M.C. leaflet detailing the story of the rally. Club Membership Form on reverse.
