Notes
A fine example of this popular model made between 1963-66. Looks as if has rarely seen the light of day.
Finished in vibrant mid-blue (not light blue) with a yellow spare wheel mount, shaped spun wheels. black detachable rear axle. Both delicate wing mirrors intact , although no little reflective pieces now.
Close inspection reveals very minor light spots on the roof and a few light surface splitting to 2 tyres.
The inner card stand is bright and complete. Couple of minor wheel slot tears caused by movement of this heavy model in the box.
The card picture box is complete and fresh-looking with vivid colours. Minor wear only. Hard to find these comparatively flimsy boxes (storing heavy models) this good! Even harder to find complete with the card packing block too.
