Notes
This Alfa Romeo model has a vivid gleaming red and white finish, rare late issue with red plastic wheels. White driver, attractive and original silver detailing head-on and at the sides, racing number 8 on both sides (couple of little nicks to one, some fine dots visible, as-made).
Correct matt baseplate. A few little chips at the edge of the driver’s seat and couple of little marks to the raised seam at the rear. Couple of stray marks at one side (minor). No chips to the driver’s head and a very fine lustre throughout!
The pictorial box is complete and brightly-coloured, showing minimal handling. Nice silky finish. No tears. Shopkeeper’s price is pencilled at an end flap.
