New Model Mini Cooper
Jim Wilson has recently produced a highly accurate 1:43 scale die cast model of John Drake's mini cooper as seen throughout the hour-long series.
The model has been stripped back to bare metal and then resprayed smoke grey like the TV version and the roof resprayed old english white to complete the finish. It also features a black interior, chrome overriders on the bumpers, jewel headlights, opening doors and of course the 731 HOP number plate.
Complete with a ‘used look’ display box to finish this great little model off.
Jim has designed 10 different versions each with a different box and each design will only be produced 5 times. Each model comes with a certifcate.
I am really happy to say I am lucky enough to have one of the first designs.
