Notes

A delightful model from Corgi issued between 1965-66 with ingenious “glowing” Trans-O-Lite lighting. In very close to mint condition, with a bright, original paint finish throughout. Spring suspension on shaped spun wheels, and the chef rotates when the knob on the roof is turned. Complete “Snack Bar” and “Joe’s Diner” labels too.

C471v1032

Just a couple of tiny marks to the white finish caused by opening the hatch. Note the small hole to one tyre (probably as-made and it still runs well).
The box is bright, fresh and complete, with a crisp feel. Period dollar price label.
