FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION. One (1) Matchbox Lesney Pontiac Catalina Convertible 39 b3, pale yellow body, cream plastic interior with separate red steering wheel, crimson painted metal base, green tinted windscreen (see photos), 9 x 24 silver plastic wheels, A type cream interior with separate red steering wheel, A type trim applied to f...ront grille and bumper. Stannard code 7 of 15. This magnificent model from my 60+ year old personal collection is in very near mint condition. It was introduced in March, 1962 and was sold in this type and 8 other variations based upon body, base, interior, and wheel colours (Mack). There exist 15 distinct Stannard code types. This is a Stannard code 7 casting with above characteristics (pale yellow, cream interior, red steering wheel, green tinted windscreen, 9 x 24 SPW, A-A). It is approximately 70 mm in overall length. Please carefully examine the high definition photos for the virtually flawless virgin original paintwork detail. The crimson paintwork on the metal base is immaculate. The silver plastic wheels show no indications of use. The windscreen is perfect (see photos). The tow hook completely intact. There are no casting or mechanical defects. This Pontiac Convertible will display as new. Additional photographs can be sent to your e-mail address and questions will be entertained up to 4 hours prior to auction end. I make the complimentary box which will be sent with the model. They are constructed of correct weight tag board. They are laser printed so they will be somewhat glossier than an original Lesney era box, which was printed with lithography. This box is intended for display and storage purposes with a genuine Lesney Products model only.

2. Grading:VNM = Very Near Mint. The paintwork is, for all practical purposes, close to new. Original factory flaws will be noted in the listing if they exist. All original accessories are present.
NM = Near Mint. Restoration unnecessary. The paintwork is nearly perfect, clean, shiny and bright on all exterior surfaces (except for possibly the base, if painted). Original, virgin paintwork approaches 100% with the possible exception of any factory paint flaws or very minor storage (not impact) wear. Negligible rolling use of the wheels may be present. The model is mechanically perfect. All original appliques and accessories are present.
EXC = Excellent. Minor paintwork and/or applique imperfections may exist, usually due to improper storage, not play, and will be evident in the photos. Paintwork imperfections may have been restored. Decals or other appliques may have been replaced with replicas. For this grade, no mechanical problems exist, including windows, if applicable, and no such repairs have ever been performed, in our opinion. Minor wheel use may be evident.
