Notes
From one of the largest, private collections we have ever seen, with many items bought new at the time and stored away until now. Taken as a whole, the collection provides an exciting, kaleidoscopic snapshot of popular diecast toys issued during the 1960?s -1970?s.
Issued between 1969-74. In tip-top condition, taken out of the box just once to take this picture. This Chevrolet model has a gleaming metallic blue finish, bright gold bonnet inset and lights. Whizzwheels. Two figures inside; the male figure often mistaken for James Bond! It comes complete with the stiffer cellophane piece propping open the car.
A lovely example presented in a harder to find, shop-fresh, red and yellow window box.
An under-valued model at this price.
