Notes
According to an ex-employee of Ford who was involved in the ordering of this maize issue from Corgi, model was commissioned at the time of the launch of the real car. These maize models were made just prior to the standard release colours which ran from 1970-73.
This example is in fine unused, original condition with a perfect matt black roof. After careful scrutiny, a couple of small partial thickness chips may be found at a front wing tip.
Complete with figure of Graham Hill.
Red and yellow window box is crisp, bright and clean. Minor age wear. Note that the white card inner has been re-fixed into place (torn off at some time). Intact original cellophane .Original additional perspex packing strip.
