Do you have a better picture of the dashboard that is in focus similar to picture 10, but focused on the dashboard not the rear of the car like picture 10 is?
Yes. That’s where it would go. Obviously, you could get one made.
Is the missing plate supposed to go on the plate holder on the front of the model base shown in the first picture?
Today is the last day to bid. Please note, there is zero point in waiting to bid as the clock resets with each bid. Additionally, if the item sells for over $1000, I will pay for first-class shipping in the U.S. by UPS. The item has met its reserve, so please bid to WIN. Good luck.
The reserve is off. As you can see the model is in exceptional condition. There is a plate the has the number of the car 635/1000 that I can’t locate. Every other piece of paper, box and packaging is included. I just want to note that in full disclosure.
