C327
Corgi 327 M.G.B. G.T. Colour trial in orange & white. Very good/not boxed. Probably one of only a handful or even a unique piece from The 'Monty Calme' Corgi Collection.
Notes
The Monty Calme landmark Corgi Collection, covering the width and breadth of Corgi models amassed over decades by an exuberant collector. The Monty Calme collection is a truly astonishing gathering of the best of Corgi models and ephemera, including rare and unique pieces and point of sale items. The largest collection we have ever seen.
Monty says:
?This colour trial MGB GT was part of a small batch of models I bought from an ex-employee of Corgi many years ago?.
This attractive colour finish would have been popular with collectors! Deep orange lower half and a white upper with a black interior. Spoked wheels with suspension, Jewelled headlights. Chrome trim. Opening doors and hatch. No window glazing in the rear hatch section.
The rather sober deep red version with a pale blue interior was plumped for instead. 1967-69.
