Plastic tanker in yellow and white has very nearly complete – complete ‘BURMAH-SHELL’ labels and logo on both sides as well as ‘BURMAH-SHELL’ logo at the rear. Intact tow hook. Jewelled headlights. Screwed base. Presents well.
Distinctive card box for 330 Caltex Fuel Tanker has wear and a couple of storage punctures.
