    Description

    Up for bid is a very rare redline King Kuda is blue over chrome with brown interior.  If you are familiar with over chrome cars, you can tell from the pictures that this is the real deal.  Super bright shiny blue paint with zero toning.  Nice wheel chrome and a shiny base.  There are some nicks here and there and some paint pops and flaking visible in the pictures, common on these OC cars.  And then of course there is no window glass, so that's the big issue, but there is a story.  I bought this car about 10 years ago on EBAY from the Toy Scout, FXtoys at the time.  He indicated in that listing that he had acquired it from from an ex Mattel employee who had snagged it at the factory after they decided to repaint the chrome Club Cars, which led to the these OC beauties.  The window was never installed, so maybe it was a paint test car or something.  The car was rated as Excellent condition by Fxtoys, between C8 and C9 the way he grades them, and I would agree.
    I printed out a copy of the EBAY listing back in 2012, so I will include the printout in the package to document the history on it.  I think the roundels are repro, but not sure.  Glass aside, examples this nice don't come up that often, here's your chance to grab one with a cool story.
    The last couple pictures show some other rare cars that I'm in the process of listing. Need to raise some cash, so time to pass it along to someone else after a decade in my case!
