Description
Visual and technical description: the diecast model has a white metal body with subtle silver accents and red details that emphasise the character of the Shell line. The plastic wheels are mounted on dark hubs; the chassis is also made of plastic, which is typical of classic Corgi models. Shell stickers are visible on the sides, while the underside is embossed with the Corgi logo and the wording Made in Great Britain, confirming its origin. The shell emblem and Shell lettering decorate the side panel, and the model measures 84 mm in length. The model has visible paint loss and wear, indicating former use and adding to its retro appeal. The white metal body with silver shades and red accents creates a contrast that draws attention on a collector's shelf. Overall, it presents solidly despite minor signs of use, while details such as the lettering and finish emphasise the characteristic style of diecast models from the period. Although this example bears signs of age, it remains clear evidence of former production in Great Britain and of Shell's popularity as an automotive partner.
Condition and restoration
Used, collectible diecast model; after restoration it is like new (without a box, unless a box is shown in the photos). We restore models with 3D-printed replacements for missing parts and special paints made for restoring model cars. If the model shows signs of use, it has been intentionally left partly unrestored to keep its individual vintage character. The photos show the actual condition of the model.
The date given in the title or description is not always the date the casting was made. It may refer to the design of the model, the first casting series or the production of the real car. We give the dates the manufacturer states on the base. If in doubt, check all information against the photo of the base of the model.
