Dinky 170
Dinky 170 Ford Sedan. Red and cream low line. Scarce. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce. From The Cumbrian Collection.
Notes
An unusual Dinky model issued between 1958-59, so a little later than the high line versions.
This classic Dinky car has a striking all original red and cream finish with a day-one lustre. Bright baseplate (minor ‘spidering’) and fine tread original tyres run well. None of the expected marks at the bonnet detail or at the bumpers – this example presents very well indeed.
It is obvious that this model has spent most of the past 50 or so years tucked away in its box.
Not even a suggestion of a roof rub! Just a couple of negligible marks only.
The box is bright and complete and has the correct colour spot at the end flaps. Minor handling wear only.
