Budgie 1959 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud #102 scale 1:43 made in England

Description: For sale here is a garage find Budgie Models 1955-1959 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud in Metallic Silver with plated grille. These are incredibly rare in North America since they were originally produced in England in the early 1980s. It has been gently cleaned and polished to remove dust and dirt and wears its original paint, however there is some corrosion on the zinc base and the nickel-plated grille appears to be missing the hood ornament. No box or packaging was found or is available with it. More details about this model from the Diecast VIntage Toys site located here: https://www.diecastvintagetoys.co.uk/budgie-102-rolls-royce "No.102 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud was the last fully new model produced by Budgie and it was a fine one to end with. Cast with great detail and precision, it was an outstanding example of the skills of diecast toymakers. Made for H Seener Ltd. by Modern Products in their foundry in Walthamstow, it was based on the Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud manufactured from 1955 to 1959. The design of No.102 was interesting in not having the radiator grille cast with the body but instead as a separate casting which included the famous 'Flying Lady' mascot and the front bumper. This meant that the whole section could be painted before assembly. The remainder of the body was a one-piece casting fitted with clear, or sometimes slightly amber-tinted, plastic windows. Underneath, the silver painted base included some drive-shaft and exhaust detail and carried the lettering '1955-1959 Silver Cloud Rolls-Royce Budgie Models Made in England for H Seener Ltd'. The wheels were unpainted metal with black treaded tyres."Budgie produced the Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud in a number of different colours including metallic finishes. Although this particular diecast may not be perfect for display, it might make a good base for a custom build or a re-paint. Check the pictures for details on condition.
