Corgi 480
Corgi 480 Chevrolet Taxi Cab. Very near mint/boxed, with card packing piece. Crisp box. From The Nelson Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1965-66, this Chevrolet Taxi Cab is finished in vibrant red and orange-yellow, with a shining chrome trim (few little marks). Complete labels including the ‘TAXI’ labels on the roof. Original aerial.
Suspension on shaped spun wheels. Curiously look at the rear wheel driver’s side which is convex! We surmise factory unfinished with the central section still present rather than the usual concave central section presentation.
Hard to find the merest mark to the paint finish.
The complete card box looks like old shop stock (just a tiny tear)and comes with the original card packing piece.
