GENERAL INFO

Number 75 started with the beautiful 75A T-Bird, appearing first in a B4 box, showing a large drawing of the model, low in the picture and with numbers closer to it. The B5 that followed is also large but higher and more to the left of the picture and the number are away for the model and scroll.

The two C boxes are basically repeats of both B4 and B5 boxes.

The D1 and D2 box show the nice colorful model with what appears to be dark gray wheels.

All boxes are size 3.

RARITY

The B4 is a little harder to find although both C boxes are more desirable. None of those boxes are considered rare.
