Notes
This Austin Taxi model has a gleaming, sleek, black finish, R.A.F. blue interior and base, shaped spun shining wheels. As-new original treaded tyres. Driver, steering wheel. “Taxi” lettering is very nearly complete (tiny portion of the letter ‘x’ is missing). Couple of very small marks at roof sign corner tips. Lovely original silver detailing of the radiator, meter and lights. Couple of dots at a wheel arch and a little mark at a rear wing.
Presents well:
The paler yellow (later) picture box is bright, crisp and complete with all end flaps. No tears. Minor handling wear only. Period pencilled price at an end flap.
