D212
Dinky 212 Ford Cortina Rally Car. Near mint plus/boxed. From a beautiful, single-owner collection, some 25 years in the making.
Notes
This collector wanted only the best examples in his collection ? painstakingly upgrading until he had the best examples he could find. After over 25 years, he has now decided to part with items from his own extensive collection.
This is one of them.
A striking Dinky Rally Cortina model with a crisp black and white finish! All labels are complete and intact throughout, looking very fresh and bright. Nicely detailed model has *original ‘D’ registration number plates front and rear, spotlights, ruby-jewelled rear lights and an intact spotlight on the roof (tiniest of rubs). Opening doors reveal a bright red detailed interior. Bright spun wheels and a matte black base. As-new original tyres run well.
Close scrutiny reveals a few little marks at a window post (passenger side) and another at the window post (driver’s side). Little mark at a bumper. Couple of mere dots besides.
Note the factory glue residue around a rear light (common).
The colourful detailed pictorial box is very clean and bright, complete with all end flaps intact. Very minor age wear and a storage score mark on one non-picture side. No graffiti.
