#760 Corgi – Lotus-Climax Formula I Together With Cooper Maserati F/1 (Nr. 155 Together With 156) (1964 Together With 1967)

Despite having consecutive numbers as well as looking really similar, these ii formula ones are three years from each other. The Lotus Climax was released inward 1964, as well as sold pretty well, belike because it was the auto inward which Jim Clark won the championships inward 1963 with a clear superiority higher upwards all other competitors. Almost i 1000000 pieces were sold.

The instant model, a Cooper Maserati, was released inward 1967, only I cannot set it alongside the cars that operate that twelvemonth or the previous one. The coloring fabric as well as ornament may signal to the Rob Walker Racing Team, only I produce non know who drove this auto with RN7.

Both models were discontinued inward 1969: the Lotus possibly afterwards the expire of Jim Clark inward 1968. The argue why the Cooper was too discontinued afterwards entirely ii years is too unknown to me... despite beingness as well as thence brusk for sale, it was sold 726,000 times.
