D167
Dinky 167 A.C. Aceca Coupe. Brown & cream issue. Near mint plus/boxed. From a substantial collection in Northern Europe.
Notes
Issued between 1958-63, this version is a more difficult find. Finished in glossy deep brown and cream, with fawn hubs. More unusual variation in comparison to the more common red and grey version.
Looks very close to mint, just the occasional tiny mark to the original paint finish and on e of the cream wheels has a little marking. Shiny base and the treaded tyres are well-shaped.
The box is very nice indeed: brightly-coloured, crisp and complete. Barely any handling wear at all! Correct two-colour spot at the end flaps. Period pencilled price at an end flap.
