Oldsmobile Super 88 (235)This attractive standard saloon version of Corgis classic Oldsmobile Super 88 casting was introduced into the range in 1962. Modelled on a fifth generation Oldsmobile Super 88, Corgi 235 is an unheralded gem in their 1960s era back catalogue. Less than 350,000 were produced, making it one of the rarer Corgi Super 88 models a situation resulting from Corgis promotional activity largely concentrating on the Sheriff Car version, which had been released

The casting was based on that of Corgi 438 but given a new plastic moulding at the rear
