Notes
Issued during 1977, this promotional ‘Lucas Oil’ articulated tanker is in in close to perfect condition with all six grey filler caps complete and intact. Black cab interior and plated hubs – note the front axle domed hubs (harder find). Both grey hoses in place at the sides.
‘Lucas Oil’ labels are complete and bright. Few marks to the paint finish.
The correct green and white box base is colourful, bright, clean and intact, although a little worn now (the original owner has made an additional card plinth which fits beneath the original, in order to give greater support – the original is made of flimsy card and this helps to keep the card supported).
Bubble lid is the original and notably clear (no sunfading – and no splitting either!). Supple. Hard to find this good.
