Notes
Sought after models that are so difficult to find in good condition! Dinky dies were sold to the Indian Firm S. Kumar & Co. trading as Atamco. (1968-70). Often known as Indian-Dinky toys, the finish was poor in comparison. This example was made during 1970.
Model is in close to perfect condition with a pleasing lustre, intact bonnet decal and straight aerial. Of course, the finish is not to Dinky standard, but still this is a most interesting and scarce item!
Plastic one-piece wheels.
Complete US Army label head-on.
One chip to the top of one of the seats.
The pictorial card box is complete with no tears or graffiti. Inside, you will find the 3 cut -up pieces of another Nicky Toys box which was used as packing for this model!
