has never been removed from the Styrofoam bottom plate and rarely ever out of the box. The diecast is DIN #362 of 1724. The diecast is in phenomenal shape and you would be hard pressed to find any cosmetic defects apart from those from production. All of the original contents of the diecast including the car cover and authenticity paper are still included. If you have any questions or wish to purchase more than one diecast at a time, feel free to contact me for a bulk rate.
