The red one I picked up at Toys-R-Us for $19.95 has the top (black) down and
appears to be an early TR6. No rubber bumper guards, TR6 letters on rear
fenders. It has an air dam which was supposedly started on the 73s but if
that's true then it should have the union jack flag not the TR6 letters. Maybe
that was only true for the exports to the U.S. This one is RHD with PI.
Someone has "offered" the die casts in theVTR classifieds for $29.00 plus S&H.
I called all the Toys-R-Us stores in town until I found the one I wanted. They
were very helpful.

And if you noticed, Moss had the same thing for $39.00 and TRF had them
for $45.00 marked down in their sale catalog to $32.00 I think? I got
them at Toys-R-Us for $19.00 each.
Makes you wonder....
