Notes

Such a vivid finish on this scarce British heavyweight Foden Platform Lorry. Bright yellow, grey and red. Beautifully constructed, this was part of a small range of diecast construction models made by this British manufacturer. Sold at the time with the necessary tools to take apart and rebuild, this Foden model measures 32cms x 9.5cms. approx.

Complete with spare wheel stowed underneath. Clockwork function works. In honest condition with chipping to the paint finish as may be seen in the images.
