Corgi 485 Austin Mini Countryman 'Surfing'. Near mint plus/boxed. Lovely box!With figure and surf boards. Leaflet. From a high quality collection in the U.S.
Notes
Issued between 1965-69, this popular Mini model has a sea-green finish, ‘wood panelling’, yellow interior, jewelled headlights, aerial, bright chrome roof-rack with two surf boards, and surfing figure.
Suspension on as-new, original shaped spun wheels. Fine treaded tyres are well-shaped.
Couple of little marks at the rear opening doors. Under minute scrutiny you will see that a couple of small areas of the chrome have been over-painted with silver paint at some time. Aerial is straight.
The colourful pictorial box is very crisp, clean and bright (close to old shop stock quality). Tiny age/handling wear only. With leaflet.
