D140A
Dinky 140A Austin Atlantic. Near mint/early issue, so not individually boxed. Pink issue with cream interior. From The BST Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1951-53, in various colours, this attractive example finished in pink and cream presents well.
Complete with cream steering wheel, four smooth running original tyres (no flat spots!), original silver detailing . Minor ‘spidering’ to the railed baseplate.
Couple of areas of rough casting and the occasional very small mark to the paint finish. Closest scrutiny reveals a little extra (later) paint at the top edge of the windscreen.
Not an easy find!
