Ford Zephyr Saloon by Dinky Toys, No. 162. Two-tone blue, grey wheels. Early issue with body-coloured number-plate and no painted tail lights. Very near mint/boxed. From The One Owner From New Collection.
Notes
With an all-original paint finish in two-tone blue and grey cast wheels, this is a fine Dinky car made between 1956-60. Early issue, with body-coloured number-plate area (not silver) and without painted tail light detail. Well-shaped smooth tyres.
Very near mint.
For comparison only, please take a look at this model on the left (more greyish-blue upper) when compared with the later issue with brighter blue upper.
The box is bright and complete, with the correct colour spot. A little grubbiness and penned numbering on the top surface.
