D178
Dinky 178 Plymouth Plaza. Light blue and white version. Scarce version, especially in the *blue-spotted correct box*. Very near mint/boxed. Exceptional!
Notes
Issued in various colours finishes between 1959-63, this is the most difficult colour version to find. It is in shining bright, original condition with an eye-catching pale blue and white colour finish, shiny shaped spun hubs and black tyres. Matt baseplate.
Upon closest scrutiny, you will find a very few little marks/dots. Roof has not chipped or yellowed. A fine display piece.
The correct lighter yellow (so later) picture box is in outstanding, fresh condition. Complete, clean and crisp, with vivid colours. Especially difficult to find in this blue colour spotted box!
