D167
Dinky 167 A.C. Aceca Coupe. Near mint/boxed. Rare brown & cream issue, with SPUN WHEELS in EXPORT box. From The Canadian Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1958-63, in various colour finishes/wheel variations, this version is a more difficult find. Finished in glossy deep brown and cream, with spun hubs.
Casting dots on the roof and at the rear ( where the cream paint shows), but as-made. Occasional small mark besides. Gloss baseplate is rather tarnished now. Spun wheels are bright and shiny.
The red and yellow export/late box is crisp, bright and clean with the yellow (cream?) colour spot at an end flap. Minor age wear including a small light stain. Crease. Period pencilled price at an end flap.
