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.

Finished in an attractive shade of Chilean yellow, deep red detailed interior,shiny spun wheels, supple, smooth original tyres (small indentation to one). Opening bonnet and boot. Rear number plate. Bare metal base.
