View Full Version : Corgi Oldies Lummox 04-11-2009, 09:47 AM Neat ones, huh? I need me a 1:1 Chrytsler Ghia BAD!!!!! http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t32/Lummoxed/Corgis.jpg vwtoysmike 04-11-2009, 11:35 AM Very cool Dave - Corgi's have always been a favorite of mine. I've never seen that Mustang before. Is the color and decals/tampo original? That Land Rover and Horse trailer are sweet in the background. Lummox 04-11-2009, 12:52 PM Thanks! Yup, those decals are origonal. Groovie, huh?! vwtoysmike 04-11-2009, 02:40 PM IT IS groovy - I went out in garage and found the two-tone white /black Dinky Mustang that I was thinking about. SMS88 04-11-2009, 04:09 PM The Great Book of Corgi tells us that Ghia only bodied about half a dozen of these cars so finding one today is likely to be rather expensive! Dave has the nicest colour combos on the Ghia (most common in blue,also available in green) and the Bentley (also in green/white). The Mustang looks good with those labels, and there is a high priced variation which has a different label on the trunk. I didnt have any of these as a child but have most of them now - are these Dave´s original childhood toys? Lummox 04-11-2009, 05:06 PM The ultra swankster king of cool original hipster extroidenair Dean Martin had one of these Ghias! :thumbsup: Thanks for the info on these variations, Mick. These weren't my childhood toys, but I've haddem a good 15 years though. http://files.conceptcarz.com/img/Ghia/62_Ghia_L6-4_Prototype_BY_05_MDB_02.jpg TJinSA 04-13-2009, 01:39 PM Looks like someone used the Man From U.N.C.L.E. for target practice (and it looks realistic to boot!). Why haven't I seen reruns of that show? It was one of the best! Lummox 04-13-2009, 08:45 PM The bullet holes look very realistic. At my local independent video store you can rent Man From U.N.C.L.E. !!! alex1485 04-13-2009, 10:54 PM heres a convertible version! http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/1025/img7070ybn.jpg Lummox 04-13-2009, 11:47 PM Whoa, didn't know they made one.....(and probably ONLY one!) 69Stang 04-14-2009, 06:58 AM What a cool group of rides there Lummox! Lummox 04-14-2009, 09:53 AM I wonder if those Ghias are the same basic model. The lines are entirely different. Mabey a different year. alex1485 04-15-2009, 01:23 AM or maybe they changed the coupe from the convertible a little? no idea, i don't know about that part of the car. vBulletin® v3.8.7, Copyright ©2000-2012, vBulletin Solutions, Inc.
