Dinky 138 Hillman Imp Saloon. In METALLIC BLUE with RED INTERIOR. Very scarce version. Near mint/boxed. From The Eric Slager Collection.
Notes
This is the later issue (1968-73) in the scarce late issue picture box.
The Hillman Imp model has a vibrant metallic blue finish with a bright red interior, jewelled lights and a silver baseplate (minor tarnishing).
Presents well.
With luggage stowed.
A couple of minor marks on one side raised body line. Note the super-detailing at front and rear lights.
Very fresh and clean correct late issue picture box (with white background). Period price label at an end flap. Small area of surface loss near this site. Hard to fault otherwise.
