Correct with no tank slits or chain post bosses on the base, small tow hook. Complete with all original radial tyres including the spare. 20mph sign in place on a rear wheel arch.
Very few marks indeed – this example presents well. Couple of raised casting dots on the roof. On closest inspection, there is a little rough casting at the back edges of the rear wheel arches. Uneven paint finish at this site (probable factory retouch).
The deep green box with a paper label is brightly-coloured and intact with no splits or repairs . Few little edge nicks to the paper label. Period penned price.
