Notes
From one of the largest, private collections we have ever seen, with many items bought new at the time and stored away until now. Taken as a whole, the collection provides an exciting, kaleidoscopic snapshot of popular diecast toys issued during the 1960?s -1970?s.
A beautiful, unplayed-with example in a distinctive light metallic sea-green finish, red interior, Trans-O-Lite front and rear lights. Spoked wheel issue. Intact tow hook.
Very close to mint condition.
Grey base and as-new, original tyres.
Tiniest casting mark on the roof. Very faint, small, thin hairline scratch (visible under minute scrutiny).
Rare to find with this model specific leaflet too:
Old shop stock quality box with Instructions for the Trans-O-Lite function printed on the end flaps.
One of only a very few examples we have seen in this particular shade.
Old shop stock quality piece.
