This Scalextric C79 Offenhauser (Front Engine) is a vintage model from the 1960s.

It is blue in colour and was made in Hon Kong. The car is in its original, unrestored condition and has been in storage for over 10 years. In my opinion it would clean up considerably, if that is what is desired. It comes with an original box with inner.

Please see the photos for the description of this actual car and box that is being sold. In my opinion the car has:

• Original race numbers and decals

• Original drivers head, slight paint loss

• Windscreen appears to be original and undamaged.

• Original wheels, tyres may have been replaced at sometime.

• All body pins and clips intact

• Original front and rear axle and pinion all tested and in working condition

• Original roll hoop, with some rust

• Original fuel caps

• Chrome exhaust with minor chrome loss. It may not be original?

• Original motor which ran when I applied power to the braids

• Braids “as found”

• The box is complete with top and inner and appears original to me but the box side in particular is in poor condition.

The description above is only my opinion. Please look carefully at the photos and decide the condition for yourself. As a 60 year old model I am selling it “As Seen”.

With a little work it likely could be restored to almost “as new” condition. Alternatively, it can be left as original with a genuine patina reflecting its age of 60+ years.

This C79 Scalextric model is a rare classic model and is sought after by collectors.

I will post to the U.K. only by Royal Mail 2nd Class Signed For.
