Notes
Issued between 1964-65, this is one of the range of exciting racing Minis produced by Corgi during this period. Extremely popular at the time, they are even more sought-after by collectors these days!
A fresh and crisp red and white finish on this racing model with a bright chrome spotlight on the roof (which swivels). Bold print racing number ‘37’ on both doors (mere couple of dots to the transfer background on one side). ‘Monte Carlo’ bonnet transfer is notably complete and thankfully free of the near-obligatory centre line rub! Bright jewelled headlights and an attractive original finish on the silver radiator and bumper. Rear transfer is notably complete too.
Occasional negligible dot to the paint finish.
The complete and bright scarce stamped box has very light wear including a crease. Period pencilled price.
