Notes
One of the small range of Dinky models made in Hong Kong between 1965-67. Highly attractive 1:42 scale models, all presented in distinctive pictorial boxes.
This Ford Thunderbird model is finished in vibrant mid-blue with a white roof and a bright red interior. Opening doors. Matt baseplate, and complete number plates front and rear.
A few little marks at some exposed edges and a couple of little rubs to the chrome bumper detail.
The pictorial box is crisp and bright, although displaying typical wear since the model is such a tight fit. Little scuff at n end flap edge and sone rubbing at edges too. No tears or graffiti.
