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!
Original red and white finish on this racing model with a bright chrome spotlight on the roof (minor top edge rub). Bold print, complete racing number ‘37’ on one door, tiny nick on the other. ‘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 little side raised body line rub.
The complete and bright, scarce stamped box has light handling edge wear mostly at end flaps. Minor light water stain mark on one side.
