This release and its companion
Choosing one for your collection
Check that both cars are present when buying the set. A photograph of the complete pack can also appear in a listing that sells only one loose vehicle, so read the item description.
Look at the blister between the two cars for cracks and crushing. On a loose Monaro, focus on its hood decoration, tires and base condition rather than trying to infer packaging history.
Collector questions
Is the white car another Monaro variation?
No. It is the Torana A9X included in the same package. This guide’s casting is the orange Monaro at the left.
