D30E
Dinky 30E Breakdown Crane Lorry. Deep caramel issue. Very near mint/never individually boxed. Scarce model from a small 'single owner from new' collection.
Notes
A scarce and early model that would never have been individually boxed. Issued between 1947-48, this version is finished in a distinctive shade of deep caramel. ; an early post-war issue with no rear window, and ridged wheels. Smooth-running original black tyres.
Pleasing sheen to this example with original hook, sound tinplate jib and cast searchlight. Original silver trim. Well-stored and carefully handled.
Note that one wheel arch is roughly cast and there is a little paint loss to one black wheel.
Still an exceptional find.
