Notes
This model was adapted for this Monte Carlo Rally Game (from 1967). Corgi 226 Morris Mini in either light blue or maroon had a hole drilled in the base to take the peg for the game. Note too the racing numbers are most unusually ’177 transfers and this is a late issue wiht cast wheels.
‘177’ transfer is complete on one door, the other side has a portion missing. RALLY MONTE CARLO bonnet label is complete.
Occasional tiny dot to the paint finish.
