Corgi 1126
Corgi 1126 Ecurie Ecosse Racing Car Transporter. Near mint plus/boxed. Later version with RAISED BLUE LETTERING. With card packing. From The Fenman Collection.
Notes
This is the third issue finished in vivid metallic blue with raised light blue “ECURIE ECOSSE” lettering & raised body line details on both sides. Shaped spun wheels. Light lemon interior. Grey base.
Charming display piece, especially with a selection of Corgi racing cars from the same era – this transporter would hold three.
Difficult to find mint, since they were popular at the time – a firm favourite for ‘transporting’ Corgi cars around! Note the couple of chips on the top section of the transporter. Paint finish is slightly ‘mottled’ on one side due to prolonged contact with the card inner.
The colourful pictorial box is complete and bright. Presents very well. Minor wear and a few flecks of surface loss on one side of the box base covered by the lid. Small fleck of surface loss on lid lower edge. No splits or graffiti. Internal packing pieces are all present.
