Notes
Made from the original Budgie tooling for Budgie 270 with a Seddon Tractor unit. From Calcutta India.
Finished in deep blue and yellow with black plastic wheels/tyres and silver trim. Virtually complete-complete ‘BHARAT PETROLEUM’ transfers on both sides and a very nearly complete and strongly-coloured logo at the rear of the tank. ‘A Milton Product’ on the base.
Hard to find a mark to the paint finish. Little rough cast roof front edge.
Deep blue end flap style box is complete and bright. Minor age/handling wear.
Rare to come to the market-place.
