This release and its companions





Choosing one for your collection
Inspect the yellow hood stripe where it reaches the nose and check the white number circles for scuffs. A top view is useful because the broad dark roof can hide fine scratches in side lighting.
Compare the tire lettering as well as the wheel shape if a loose example looks slightly different.
Collector questions
Is this the same livery as the Vintage Racing car?
No. This edition combines dark gray paint, yellow stripes and number 8. The earlier red, white and blue car carries number 6.
