Notes
Now here’s a rare and sought-after variation! This gleaming bright jewel of a car has a two-tone red and yellow finish. Issued between 1956-59. Vivid lustre and a shining silver trim.
A desirable car in close to mint condition. Note there are several very small touch-ins and the occasional little mark besides.
The picture box is bright and complete, with the correct two-colour spot at the end flaps. Light wear and a period pencilled price on an end flap.
