C245
Corgi 245 Buick Riviera. Rare metallic SEA-GREEN issue with SPOKED WHEELS. Very near mint/boxed with MODEL SPECIFIC LEAFLET. A superlative example from a large, stunning diverse collection with many items in old shop stock condition.
Notes
From one of the largest, private collections we have ever seen, with many items bought new at the time and stored away until now. Taken as a whole, the collection provides an exciting, kaleidoscopic snapshot of popular diecast toys issued during the 1960?s -1970?s.
A beautiful, unplayed-with example in a distinctive light metallic sea-green finish, red interior, Trans-O-Lite front and rear lights. Spoked wheel issue. Intact tow hook.
Very close to mint condition.
Grey base and as-new, original tyres.

Tiniest casting mark on the roof. Very faint, small, thin hairline scratch (visible under minute scrutiny).
Rare to find with this model specific leaflet too:
Old shop stock quality box with Instructions for the Trans-O-Lite function printed on the end flaps.
One of only a very few examples we have seen in this particular shade.
Old shop stock quality piece.
