Notes
A sought-after item indeed from the French Dinky factory issued between 1969-70 only. This particular example is in very close to mint condition. Hard to find a mark to the paint finish (save for the occasional light mottled mark) Delicate transfers are complete on both sides. Paper label “Liquides Inflammables”* is intact. The filler caps on the top of the tank are always susceptible to damage – pleased to say that this example is absolutely fine.
This example comes with the spare wheel behind the cab. Shiny axles and well-shaped original tyres.
Very fresh, clean and bright card plinth (no tears). Leaflet and (incorrect) road sign are still present along with the plastic packet (number-plates applied). Card packing wedge included.
The outer box is complete and bright. Couple of very minor end flap tears to the tuck-in part of both large end flaps. Barely any wear besides.
A scarce model which is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
