Notes
A handsome Vauxhall Tourer finished in mid-grey & chrome, with cream soft top detail, wooden seating and tinplate steering wheel. Shiny, intact radiator, headlight and bumper assembly generally. Intact windscreen (correct with no glazing) is somewhat tarnished now. Working motor. Shiny plated wheels and replacement smooth tyres are well-shaped. Pre-war issue with working clockwork function and the important little SHELL Petrol Can detail on the running board, passenger-side.
Apart from the occasional tarnishing to the chrome, this example is as nice as one could wish.
Approx. 12.5 cms. in length.
Colourful card box is crisp, complete and brightly-coloured. Some residue on one side in one small area. Complete light blue ‘VAUXHALL OPEN TOURER’ label at a lid end
