D57/003
Dinky 57/005 Ford Thunderbird. Very near mint/boxed, with clear plastic packing slip. Rare and extremely fine! From The Monty Calme Collection.
Notes
One of the small range of Dinky models made in Hong Kong between 1965-67. Highly attractive 1:42 scale models, presented in distinctive pictorial boxes.
This Ford Thunderbird model is finished in vibrant mid-blue with a white roof and a bright red interior. Opening doors. Matt baseplate, and complete number plates front and rear. Suspension is fine on all four wheels.
Hard to find a mark – note the little factory touch-in on the driver’s door.
The pictorial box is really fresh, clean and bright, and a typical tight fit. Tiny wear only. Resistant end flaps show this box has been opened rarely. Complete with the nearly always missing slip of clear plastic to protect the roof in the box.
