Corgi Toys 317 Mini Cooper 'S' Monte Carlo '64
Mini Cooper 'S' Monte Carlo '64 by Corgi Toys, No. 317. Very near mint/boxed (pictorial version). From The Anthony Nesscliff Collection.
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 sought-after by collectors these days!
This ‘spotlight’ Mini is in very close to mint condition. An original red and white finish on this racing model with a bright chrome spotlight on the roof (which swivels). Tiniest rub to the spotlight finish.
Bold print racing number ‘37’ is complete on both doors. *’Monte Carlo’ bonnet transfer is complete too. Rear transfer has a tiny nick. Bright jewelled headlights and an attractive original finish on the silver radiator and bumper. Barely a mark to the paint finish.
The clean and bright box has a fleck of surface loss on one side. A little age-handling wear besides.
