Notes
An impressively detailed truck from Corgi.
With a bright red and white paint finish, perfect ‘Holmes Wrecker’ transfers on both sides, gold booms, intact wing mirrors with reflective stickers still in place, nice straight horns on the cab roof. Red plastic hazard ‘light’ (very small edge nick). Both spare tyres are still in place. Complete chevron paper label at the rear of the model. Model looks unused with only a couple of negligible marks, probably picked up in storage and the ladders at the sides have dulled now.
The window box is clean and bright, although there is a tear to the card and a repair to an end flap. The cellophane window has been skilfully replaced.
Complete with the rare Retailer Card!
Pristine polystyrene tray with a bright Corgi dog paper label. Both mechanics are included.
