Notes
Issued between 1964-65, this Mini-Cooper ‘S’ Monte Carlo version is one of the range of exciting racing Minis produced by Corgi during this period. Extremely popular at the time, they are even more sought-after by collectors these days!
Original red and pinkish-cream finish on this racing model with a chrome spotlight on the roof. Bold print, complete racing number ‘37’ on both doors. ‘Monte Carlo’ bonnet transfer is notably complete and thankfully free of the near-obligatory centre line rub! Bright jewelled headlights, silver radiator and bumper. Rear transfer has a really minute nick.
Couple of mere dots to the paint finish (and probably as-made, being extra-fussy here).
The complete and bright, scarce stamped box has a very crisp feel. Light storage grubbiness and a shopkeeper’s period stamped price on an end flap. With informative leaflet:
