Description
This diecast model is a white racing van with blue sides and red details, approximately 77 mm long (1:58 scale). The metal casting gives it a substantial, solid shape, while the plastic wheels rotate without any major issues. The Team Racing paintwork with number 15, waxed and slightly matt, still conveys the character of the 1970s. The embossed Corgi logo can be seen on the metal chassis, while the sides bear the inscriptions Hot Rod Custom Van and Made in China. The Team Racing decals are positioned on the side panels, although some of them are worn. The body does not open, highlighting the authenticity of this version; the model as a whole shows visible signs of scuffing and use, characteristic of a collection example. The length and proportions reflect the realities of the diecast model segment from that era: a metal construction, precise details and durable components that retain their appearance over the years. The model was made in China, which was typical of this line, and its style refers to classic Team Racing races from the late 1960s and early 1970s. Overall, this diecast model is an attractive addition for collectors who appreciate authentic materials and distinctive design.
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.
