Notes
Unusual second box issue of this highly-detailed model made between 1967-74.
Superb shining gold horns and booms etc. Both wing mirrors are complete and intact. Obviously well-stored and barely used, this is one of the nicest examples we have seen in a long while.
One small mark at a passenger side bumper and a little glue discolouration to the rear chevron label.
Clean and complete polystyrene inner with fresh Corgi dog logo and two mechanics.
The second issue blue and yellow window box is clean, bright and complete. Tiny tear at one corner. Colourful illustration on the box reverse. Original cellophane is intact if a little crumpled.
Not an easy find in this condition.
