Anyone know the rough value of these original Toppers in blister packs (with average condition cards)?

Custom Eldorado
Custom Thunderbird

It depends on if the cars are mirror paint, or gloss. Mirror paint in the blister will go for 3X or more of the standard, but it also depends on who is bidding at the time (assuming an ebay sale). $100-$300 would be my best guess.

Ditto. Condition is also important to value

Would be really cool to see a carded Mirror Topper. What I understood was that the mirror cars were more of a salesman sample car and they were never on a card. :confused:

On the carded Eldorado and T-Bird, check for open or sealed doors. Sealed doors on those two will add value. Open door still up there though, especially on a card.

I was thinking the same thing about the mirrors... I did check the Tomarts guide, and they have stated, somehow having evidence of.., that there have been found mirrors in package.
according to them, the Custom T-Bird, Custom Toronado and Custom Turbine have been found in blister as mirrors.

Yep yer right I just found a post on another board about somebody finding a Mirror Sealed door Custom Ferrari on BP back in 2005.

Here's a pic of a mirror T-Bird in bp and I've seen a dragster mirror in bp.

Yea, mirror cars were in BP just like the standard ones. They were the first run cars, then Topper shifted to the cheaper paint and later in 1969 no more open doors...
