Notes

Issued between 1963-66. Attractive metallic steel blue finish with a vivid red interior and spun hubs. Suspension and Trans-O-Lite headlamps. This car looks as if it has barely been handled and has been carefully stored (so maintaining the freshness of the colours and crispness of the box).

C252x2581

C252x2582

Upon minute inspection, one can see a little mark on the passenger door and that’s about it! Lovely unused condition throughout.
The rare plain box with factory stamped ends is very crisp, bright and complete, with only the most minor age wear, including a little rubbing to the stamped print at one end flap.

C252x2583

Note too that one end has ‘OVER’ rather than ‘ROVER’ stamped at one end (careless factory stamping!)
