D57002
Dinky 57/002 Corvair Monza. Hong Kong Dinky. Very, very near mint/boxed. Scarce. Another quality piece from the Italian collection.
Notes
One of the small range of Dinky models made in Hong Kong between 1965-67. Highly attractive 1:42 scale models, all presented in distinctive colourful pictorial boxes.
What a fine example this is! This Corvair has a shining bright red and black paint finish with bright chrome bumpers and wheels, number plates front and rear (minor edge rub), matt baseplate, opening bonnet and boot. Intact suspension. Looks like old shop stock. A scarce find.
Under the brightest artificial light, one can see the faintest roof rub. Really over-harshly downgraded from mint for this.
The colourful detailed picture box is extremely fresh, clean and bright, with resistant end flaps showing that this box has been opened only rarely. Barely any age wear at all.
Extremely nice!
A delightful example of a difficult model to find.
