D432
Dinky 432 Guy Flat Truck. Very, very near mint/boxed, with packing piece. Rare red cab/blue back combination! From 1956. From a collector in Northampton.
Notes
This is a scarce and original issue precisely dated from May 1956 (Dinky stamp inside the box lid). This rare version has a vivid cherry red cab and chassis, mid blue back, mid-blue ridged hubs. Large painted hook. Second type cab so this model has triangular lugs at either side of the front number plate. Obviously unused, with a vibrant lustre. Usual scuff at the tow hook and a few minor marks besides. Little raised area on the roof.
So rare to find in any condition! Axles, bolt fixing and baseplate are shiny. Bright silver radiator and lights. Complete with spare wheel.
Marked Dinky Toys on the base.
Well-shaped original tyres.
Virtually mint condition.
The yellow and blue lift-off lid box is strongly-coloured, clean and complete. Bright staples too. Very minor wear only.
A fine example of a sought-after Dinky commercial truck. First class investment piece and a delight to own.
