Corgi 339
Corgi 339 Austin Monte Carlo Mini Cooper 'S'. Very near mint/boxed. Cast wheels issue in plain card box. With model specific leaflet. From The Pennsylvanian 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 are complete at front and rear. Front number plates have a small nick and light mottling. Rear number plates are complete. Few tiny marks to the paint finish.
Nice to see that the white roof does not have nibbles/chips at edges, so presents very well.
Couple of tarnished areas to sump guard.

The scarce plain non-picture card box has deep colours on crisp, clean card. Silky feel shows that this box has rarely been handled. Small tear and a little crease or two.
Also includes the 1967 Monte Carlo B.M.C. leaflet detailing the story of the rally. Club Membership Form on reverse.
