Notes
This Pullmore Car Transporter was made for such a short time with six rivets (usual version has four) during 1953. This example is in all original condition with a light blue cab and chassis, mid-blue wheels, dark fawn decks. Black radiator and bumper. Complete ‘Dinky Toys Delivery Service’ on both sides and at the rear. Usual little marks where metal meets metal, and a small area of paint loss near the drop-down tailgate. A few little marks besides. Presents well with a pleasing lustre.
Correct early 582 box is complete with no splits if a little rubbed at edges. A very small area of surface loss on a short lid end.
With packing wedges:
A difficult find!
