Notes
This eye-catching classic American car is in original condition finished in bright sky blue, with a white roof and side flashes, silver trim, spun wheels, white tyres, gloss baseplate correct with no number printed.
Occasional little mark may be seen if you peer really closely (you can generally find a mark if you look long enough). Scarce Dinky model in fine original condition. Couple of scratches on the shiny base.
Issued at the end of the production run( 1959-63), this rare variation is presented in the all- yellow, non-picture box*. Correct colour spot. Bright and complete, although there is a small slit puncture and a little tear at an end flap Fleck of surface loss and remains of old tape which kept the ends closed.
