D978m4502

None of the usual chipping head-on, showing that this truck has had careful handling only.
Couple of tiny marks and very minor age discoloured patches on the roof box.
Both plastic bins are present, complete with removable lids!
The pictorial lift-off lid box with full colour picture scene has vibrant colours. Attractive backdrop for the truck when on display! Very small end flap tear and a very small area of edge ‘fraying’.
