D177
Dinky 177 Opel Kapitan. Near mint/boxed. Scarce SOUTH AFRICAN issue in CREAM. From a large private European collection.
Notes
A rare find, this South African issue Opel model has a rich cream finish, a bright red interior and suspension on bright shaped spun wheels.
Closest inspection reveals a stroke of well-matched cream paint on the top of both front wings (not visible unless you are really looking for it), and another couple of flicks of paint on the roof ( subtle).
Few minor marks to the paint finish.
The standard issue box is complete, bright with all end flaps intact. No graffiti. Minor age/handling wear and a top edge scuff.
