Notes
An interesting and scarce item. Cragstan (more well known for its robot items) wanted a piece of the diecast market that Corgi and Dinky had captured and enlisted Gamda Koor/Sabra for its international (and specifically U.S.) sales. Cragstan called them Sabra Super Cars, “Detroit Seniors” (see image of model base).
Bright yellow original finish on this Chevrolet Taxi with a bright red interior, chrome trim black roof light and intact ’TAXI lettering throughout. Approx 1:43 scale. Shiny spun wheels. Well-shaped original tyres.
Very, very near mint.
Hard plastic box with intact and complete garage door and yellow plastic base. Colourful and complete header card has a light storage crease. Very close to old shop stock quality, nevertheless.
