Notes
Issued between 1954-60, this model has a rich mid-blue finish with matching blue wheels, closed in rear wheel spats, silver trim. A really difficult find – and in this condition, one not to be missed!
Smooth original tyres are well-shaped.
Tiny marking to the paint finish.
Very small and subtle area of discolouration on a front wing.
Colourful picture box is clean, strongly-coloured and complete, with a crisp feel and showing minimal handling. Correct colour spot. Period penned/pencilled prices and faint label residue.
