I have seen some of these and they all seem to be numbered 6..I have one with the number 4 on it.Has this been noted here or elswhere?

The Ferrari is one of the Husky models that has been updated
http://www.vintagebritishdiecasts.co.uk/husky/6b.htm
and the odd numbered one has not been noted before although a blistered ferrari was found numbered 56 on the blister card,

Are you referring to the racing number on the car or the model number?

If it's the racing number then have a look on Flickr - the first one I came across has a number '8' on it. If it's the model number I have them down as 50a, but only in red which is funny because I had 2 as a kid - one red and one light blue and I think one was a 'Growler'. They used to be star performers in my Sports Car races on the carpet along with my Ford Group 6s and a 'Growler' Porsche 917

I'm going to have to get the Juniors and Husky book at some point as I keep seeing and remembering things I don't see listed anywhere...

Here is the number '8'

Thank you guys for the feedback..I can list it now as a rare Whizzwheels and maybe achieve an extra 50p..Who knows..I have a load of Jr stuff on at the mo...

If it wasnt factory sealed inside a blister,but loose,i`d think it may have been put on by the previous owner???

Possibly but it looks legit.....Poss been a contender on a Matchbox motorway race track who knows? Heres picture see what everyone else thinks.

Two questions:
- Are both roundals the same diameter, and
- Do both numbers use the same typeface?

Look fine to me, and the style and size match the '8' on the Flickr one. Maybe Corgi supplied a sticker sheet like with the Le Mans Austin Healey?

I've seen 4's before and I think I remember different interiors as well, (white, cream & yellow maybe).
