1970 Rare Moko Lesney Transitional Ferrari Berlinetta - 75b

Excellent Condition

The #75 Ferrari Berlinetta joined the Superfast range in 1970 and was deleted from the range at the end of the same year.

The tow hook fitted to the regular wheels issues was removed from the seat mouldings, as were the quartet of cast exhaust pipes on the base at the same time to improve track performance on loops.

The baseplates also had deeper channels cut to allow the new standard plastic sprung suspension unit to be fitted, always with thin 11.2mm x 2mm solid or hollow 5 slot wheels.

The baseplates on these cars can be found both with and without ´Pat App´ as the central line of text. The body casting was altered by adding small cowls to the headlamps and a bonnet lip extension, as well as fractionally extending the rear rivit post to alter the stance of the toy. The SuperFast issues were packed in ´G´ boxes and USA and Canada blister-packs with copyright dates 1969 or 1970. The first run in green clearcoat over silver primer was usually found packed in the 1969 USA blisterpacks which included the ´G´box.
