Notes
First issue example from 1967 with a day-one bright, original red and yellow finish, with both wing mirrors intact and complete with the little reflective ‘mirror’ pieces. Grey steering wheel. Cast wheels, and as-new original tyres.
Small mark at back of roof due to contact with the front edge of the tipper.
The picture box is very bright, clean and crisp! Note the small area of surface loss at an end flap probably due to the removal of a price label at some time. Barely any wear besides. Original card packing piece.
