Yes, Corgi 'Whizzwheels' complete with the plated steel axle which were thicker than the spring steel axles of Matchbox 'Superfast'. Those rivets have far too much paint around their edges to have been pressed down at Lesney, surely someone has had this base off to put those wheels on!!

Can see where the stickers used to be on this car.No need to take it apart to fit these Corgi wheels because they press on and can easily be levered off the axles. A custom that can be replicated easily......
