Description from the seller
Beautiful T.N. Nomura - Chevrolet Camaro SS - Battery-powered - Japan - 1960s
Offered to the serious collector: An iconic and rare tinplate Chevrolet Camaro SS from the renowned Japanese manufacturer T.N. (Nomura Toys), produced in the late 1960s. This model is in absolute top condition and is fully functional.
The model is finished in the highly sought-after bright yellow color, beautifully paired with a black textured roof that imitates a vinyl top. The interior and dashboard feature the original, highly detailed red and white-yellow lithography.
• Condition: Top condition (Near Mint). The paint retains its original deep gloss and is exceptionally tight. The chrome bumpers, wheels, and rubber tires are in excellent condition. Only a minimal age spot is barely visible on the rear chrome window surround, toward the bottom center (see detail photo).
• Operation: "100% perfectly tested and working. The car runs via the 'bump-and-go' (mystery action) mechanism, the headlights illuminate brightly and the car makes a beautiful, nostalgic rumbling race sound. The battery compartment is completely clean and free of corrosion."
• Completeness: Fully complete with all original hubcaps and trim strips.
• Dimensions: Scale approx. 1:18 (length about 28 cm).
• Packaging: Without original box.
