D176
Dinky 176 Austin A105 Saloon. Very near mint/boxed. Grey with red roof and side flashes, cast wheels. From a private collection of Dinky and Corgi models, mostly purchased during the early 1980's at U.K. auction houses.
Notes
Issued between 1959-63. In light grey finish with a red roof, red flash at the sides, matching light grey wheels, white knobbly tyres. Interestingly, the Austin A105 was the first Dinky car to be made with window glazing.
This superb example is in original condition with a fine lustre to the paint finish. Hard to fault, although minute scrutiny reveals a little trace of glue residue near the rear number plate area.
The yellow picture box is complete, vividly-coloured and crisp, with the correct colour spot. Minor tear or two at end flap/top edge.
