Notes

There were lots of colour versions of this popular Dinky toy! This has got to be a favourite in this most pleasing of colour combinations.
This scarce early version has a dark grey cab, vibrant violet blue back (not the lighter royal blue), red ridged wheels, white lettering, smooth black tyres. With a working tow hook operated by means of a shiny winding handle.
