Notes
A most appealing open Sports Car model finished in cream with a detailed lithographed dashboard. Delightful feature, when wound up the car’s radio plays a tune! The other wind-up function (operated separately) operates the car. Hand-brake mechanism requires attention.
Measures approx. 16cms.
Well-stored and rarely handled, this fine open sports car has little wear to report. Bright chrome, complete ‘SCHUCO’ emblem above the radiator. Windscreen is intact. Altogether this makes a wonderful display piece!
Vibrantly-illustrated lift-off lid box is complete and note that one short end of the box base has been repaired now. Lid has edge rubbing and remains of a label at a short lid end.
Quite an irresistible and scarce piece!
