FD578
French Dinky 578 Simca Cargo Tipper Truck. Very near mint/boxed (in scarce RED-BANDED box). From The HNC Collection.
Notes
This Dinky truck was issued between 1959-70 (earlier numbering 33B).
Deep green cab and chassis, silver-grey back. Green metal wheel and well-shaped, original tyres. Spare stowed.
A little rubbing on the front bumper (probably from box contact).
The yellow picture box, rare with the red band detail at the end flaps, is a typically snug fit (common to most French Dinky items) but thankfully there is barely any wear and certainly no punctures! Clean and bright. Serrated tab (so often discarded) is present but detached now. Pencilled period price at the top surface.
