Dinky 182
Dinky 182 Porsche 356A Coupe. Deep cerise version with spun wheels. Scarce. Near mint plus/boxed. From The DC Collection.
Notes
This desirable classic Dinky car was issued between 1958-66. This scarce issue has a deep cerise finish with spun wheels.
Looks completely unused, with a pleasing lustre.
Note that the all original paint finish has a ‘textured’ quality around body lines (as-made, and really only visible under close scrutiny).
Nice bright baseplate and fine, original knobbly black tyres.
The later (lighter) yellow pictorial box is very bright, crisp and fresh. Clean , save for a small stain on one side. Incorrect, printed colour spot, although correct age for this spun-wheeled version (i.e. lighter yellow card). End flap tear.
