Dinky 57/003
Dinky 57/003 Chevrolet Impala. Hong Kong Dinky. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce issue in ALL-YELLOW in EXPORT BOX. From The Brighton 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 is a difficult find in all-yellow finish. Suspension is a little weak on one wheel. Matt baseplate, chrome spun wheels.
Couple of tiny bumper rubs and a couple of tiny marks to the paint finish. .
The complete and colourful box is clean with quite a crisp feel to the card. Notably, this example still has the Mr. Dealer strip in place. These fragile boxes nearly always have heavy wear. This example is complete although there are some tears and a repair. Two plastic fixing tabs.
