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 close to mint condition. An original red and white finish on this racing model with a bright chrome spotlight on the roof (which swivels). Some rubbing to the spotlight finish.
Bold print racing number ‘37’ is complete on both doors. *’Monte Carlo’ bonnet transfer is complete too. Rear transfer is notably complete. Bright jewelled headlights and an attractive original finish on the silver radiator and bumper. Barely a mark to the paint finish, although note there is a little factory paint miss above a wheel arch.
The complete and bright box has light wear which includes a storage crease.
With model specific leaflet which incorporates a Corgi Club Membership Form:
