Dinky 57/003
Dinky 57/003 Chevrolet Impala. Hong Kong Dinky. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce. From The Reference Collection.
Notes
One of the small range of Dinky models made in Hong Kong between 1965-67. Highly attractive 1:42 scale models, all presented in distinctive pictorial boxes.
This model has a shining yellow finish with a white roof. Suspension is fine on three wheels (not present on the front wheel, driver’s side). Matt baseplate, chrome spun wheels and intact number plates front and rear.
Upon minute inspection, you will see the occasional small mark to the paint finish.
The fresh and colourful box is so crisp, clean and bright! Resistant end flaps. Nevertheless there is a small edge scuff to one end flap seam and there is tape residue to the inside surface of one small end flap which seems to have been in place in order to prevent a handling tear.
