Notes
A sought-after model from the Dinky range of BBC vehicles made between 1959-64. A deep lustrous shade of green with a pale grey stripe and complete detailed decals on both sides. None of the usual rubbing/wear to the raised body line details.
So often the detachable dish goes astray – nice to see this one is still present! Few minor marks only mainly caused by the extending ladder. Thin hairline scratch on one window.
Nice bright ladder components and baseplate/metal parts generally.
The box is bright, clean and complete with no splits. Minor age wear only. Both packing pieces are included:
Nice to see the Instruction Leaflet is still present too:
The deep blue box base has no sunfading. Very minor shelf wear only.
