A fellow Majorette collector told me the Porsche 907 Le Mans by Majorette, was made with left hand and right hand steering!
Checking my unboxed examples (all four of them) I found two are lefthanded and two are righthanded! What fun!!!

What does surprise me, is that looking at the wheels to identify age, the left hand and right hand are used mixed during the production run of the Porsche.

Boy I LOVE those trivia things still to be discovered in our own collections!

Very hard to photograph, but the two cars at the left have left hand steering, the two at the right have right hand steering

Refer to the first pic and this pic to identify age (check the wheels). Mixed production for the steering wheel position!

And here are three boxed ones:

Gosh, you have tons a majorette stuff. Great collection of 907's. I think it's odd that they did both production runs. I wonder what the reasoning was, as it more than likely cost more money to do it both ways. Usually a company just makes a new part, then discards the old one.
