Notes

A very fine example of this attractive two-tone American car. Finished in a distinctive shade of light blue with royal blue tail fins, shining spun wheels, white knobbly tyres. Original silver detailing picks out the bodylines beautifully.

Bright baseplate and three of the original tyres are very clean (one has very minor grubbiness).
Upon minute inspection, you will see a near-microscopic dot or two, but this Dinky car is as close to mint as you can get. None of the usual rubbing on the roof or chipping at roof edges. Fine lustre to the paint finish throughout.
The correct lighter yellow (later) pictorial box is complete and bright. Crisp feel. Tiny thumb tear at an end flap edge. Correct colour spot.
