 DESCRIPTION

While this is a plastic model, not diecast, the scale at 1:60 begs for these Mini Lindy cars to be included in any small-scale collection. They are assembled without glue and the base is screwed to the body. The 1971 Riviera was a unique car in it's day and this is the only known 3-inch version. It is not in mint condition but these Mini Lindys are quite rare not and even a rough example is better than none. If you like the Boat-Tail Riviera, it is a must have.
