Notes
We are thrilled to be able to offer these remarkable models for sale. Issued in extremely low numbers at the time, they were assembled and painted in Arica, a duty-free city on the Northern tip of Chile. These exceptionally rare models were discovered by a collector on a trip to South America. The castings were made in Italy and then assembled and painted in Chile.
Even the standard Mercury Fiat model is a rare find in white! THis model is finished in ‘Chilean white’ with a bright red interior, cream steering wheel, spoked wheels and well-shaped original tyres.
Comes with a choice of a black or cream detachable hood!
Black base with screw fixing.
Few very minor marks only.
Colourful card box is fine with only the most minor wear. Note the all-important ‘ARMADO EN ARICA’ (Made in Arica) stamp on the inside surface of one large end flap.
An exceptionally rare model.
