D989

Notes

This rare export issue was made between 1963-65 and sold in the U.S.
Striking colour combination of pale grey, deep metallic blue and lemon with red plastic wheels and complete ‘AUTO TRANSPORTERS’ lettering on both sides (little nick to the clear background of one of the transfers). In very close to mint condition with a very few little marks as one might expect for a large model with moving parts. The cog on the underside of the model works to lower the upper deck.
A spectacular display piece!

Note the little casting mark above the radiator.
Only the second we have ever offered for sale in this export gold card and cellophane box. Such a fragile box to hold this Dinky heavyweight! Not surprising that this box has some wear. The original cellophane has a few tears whilst the deep gold card is remarkably tear-free. A little minor wear to the card including edge ruffling/light rubbing in places. Residue of the original tape which held the box closed.
