Notes
What a fine all original example in this scarce colour finish! This truck has the distinctive mid-blue cab and chassis, (more usual finish is violet blue), vivid cherry red back, mid-blue ridged hubs. Large painted hook. Second type cab so this model has triangular lugs at either side of the front number plate. Barely any marks at all: just a couple of little pin pricks away from mint. So rare in this condition!
Bright silver radiator and lights. Paint finish is vibrant and glowing. Complete with spare wheel.The yellow picture box is very bright and complete with no splits or graffiti. Shelf (rubbing) wear to the box base. Penned shop price at one end of the lid. Nice to see that this unused example still has the little original card packing piece which fits behind the cab.
Very, very nice!
