Notes
Issued during 1966, this Land Rover has a vivid orange paint finish, with deep green matt interior, red ridged wheels, complete with the familiar fawn metal driver, black metal steering wheel, light grey tyres (well-shaped). All original throughout. The matt metal windscreen has a little minor tarnishing, top edge. Little rough casting mark on the driver’s side wing.
A few little dots to the lustrous paint finish. Spare wheel stowed behind the driver’s seat.
The late, lighter yellow pictorial box is brightly-coloured, clean and quite crisp. Small edge puncture which has pressed back into place and a tear at an end flap seam. An orange colour spot has been placed at one end flap.
