Notes
This is a transition example from 1954 marking the re-numbering from 40A to 158 (transition box with both numbers stamped). This model has a fresh light green finish with mid-green wheels. A fine sheen throughout, since this model has barely been handled. Just a few light rubs at some of the raised body lines, probably caused by box contact. Attractive original silver detailing at radiator and headlights.
Large baseplate lettering, 40A stamped, and tow hook aperture:
The dual-numbered pictorial box is in superb condition; bright, clean, crisp and complete with the correct colour spot at the end flaps.
Minor handling wear only and the number ‘400’ has been written in ink at an end flap.
