Thanks!! That's the baby. In 1968 I was a poorly funded 10 year old. Now I have sufficient detail to improve my search...unless anyone out there has one they're prepared to liquidate of course.

As a young child of around 7 or 8 maybe, during the early sixties, I fondly remember walking 3 miles ew each Saturday morning to my nearest Airfix stockist ; 'Gardeners Hardware and Paints' Llandaff North, Cardiff, who also stocked the latest models and paints etc. Although I could only afford the smallest scale planes, tanks or sometimes the boxes of soldiers, I remember a larger scale race car model kit with a transparent body in order to see the internal workings, which fascinated me, being in pride of place in the display area. Clearly out of my price range I could only dream. I later moved onto cars starting with a small red E-type then a Bond Film Toyota (?) as I recall. Does anyone remember an Aifix transparent bodied car, or could it have been from a rival brand..?! Although I think Gardeners were loyal Airfix only purveyors! Nothing on ebay for the last couple of years.
