D176
Dinky 176 Austin A105 Saloon. Very near mint/boxed. All-cream issue with blue flash. From The Reference Collection of high quality Dinky models compiled in The U.K.
Notes
In cream finish with a dark blue flash at the sides, cream hubs, this version was issued between 1958-59.
Interestingly, the Austin A105 was the first Dinky car to be made with window glazing!
A wonderfully gleaming bright example, given the impression of unsold old shop stock:
Downgraded since the base has some tarnishing now. As-new original fine tread tyres run well.
The yellow picture box is complete with the correct colour spot at the end flaps. No tears or graffiti. Just a little age grubbiness and minimal handling wear.
