Collector details

The 852 has a metal body and base with separate plastic fenders, windshield and interior. On this release, compare Silver with red/orange detail and Real Riders together; the same casting was issued in close color and component combinations.

Check the tire sidewall, molded fender color and underside country stamp. The clear windshield and projecting fenders are common condition points: look for cracks, missing parts, bent edges and rubs at the fender tips.

Value Research

For a fair comparison, match this release’s year, series, paint and wheel type first. Then account for windshield and fender completeness, paint wear and packaging. Broad Auburn 852 searches combine several different releases.
