Notes

Issued between 1966-69, this Ford articulated truck is a delight! In very close to mint condition, this truck gleams. Complete with both wing mirrors intact (including the little reflective ‘mirror’ pieces), straight gold-coloured horns on the cab roof, and perfect “EXPRESS SERVICE” detailing on both sides of the bright silver, untarnished sliding doors. So eye-catching and it comes complete with the original mechanic figure, too.
Spun wheels issue.

Occasional tiny mark to the paint finish.
The bright pictorial card plinth on which the model sits is complete and strongly-coloured. A few little wheel slot tears due to the weight of the vehicle.
