It was made in Mexico by Lili Ledy. I have been trying to win one on ebay for a long time but they were going for more then I wanted to pay. This one has the wing and right front post reglued. That's OK with me, I still got one!
The Mexican version plastic is darker. There is no silver painted on it, not even the rear light area. Other subtle differences are the number for the "glass" is on the opposite side. The middle "spear" on the side is not as well defined. Same with the "gas cap". The chassis is marked "Made in Singapore". Anyone know if all chassis were made there?
