Notes
A striking stock car issued between 1967-69 with a vibrant yellow finish with racing numbers, and transfers, including eyes with eyelashes. Made all the more striking with these deep gold bumpers and strip low down at the sides.
Transfers are very nearly complete – complete. Suspension on detailed cast wheels.
We surmise that this model with deep gold bumpers was part of a very small run. Indeed, there are other mdoels from this period with gold bumpers , but again part of a very small run eg. Corgi 245 Buick Riviera in pale blue and Corgi 247 Mercedes Pullman in metallic ruby-red.
Few small marks to the paint finish. Occasional light rub to the gold plating.
The box is clean and complete , showing a little age/handling wear and a period price label on an end flap. Corgi Club Membership Form.
