First issued during 1962, this model is in original condition, complete with intact, lime green and red detachable canopy, driver. Ford Thunderbird car is finished in white with a bright deep yellow interior. There are a few little marks on this most unforgiving of colours. ‘TAXI’ and ‘BERMUDA’ transfers are complete ( tiny wear to one ‘Bermuda’ edge).
Spring suspension on bright shaped spun hubs. Smooth running original tyres ( one has a hairline, partial thickness crack). Intact original screen.
The box is complete and bright, if a touch grubby with a couple of creases, light edge rubbing in places.
Not an easy model to find, especially complete and intact.
