Notes
Issued between 1966-69, this Ford articulated truck is a delight! In virtually mint condition, this truck just gleams! Complete with both wing mirrors intact (including the little reflective ‘mirror’ pieces), straight horns on the cab roof, and perfect “EXPRESS SERVICE” detailing on both sides of the bright silver, untarnished sliding doors. So eye-catching and it comes complete with the original mechanic figure, too.
This cast wheel variation is more often found in the later card and cellophane box.
General impression is this Ford Truck is in unused condition.
The bright pictorial card plinth on which the model sits has strong vivid colours, fresh and crisp. Couple of minor wheel slot tears due to the weight of the vehicle.
The pictorial end flap box is complete, very clean and bright!Lightest wear – hard to find this good.
So unusual to find with both card packing pieces.
