Notes
This is the sought after late two-tone issue made towards the end of the run 1956-59. In authentic and original condition throughout with a pleasing lustre to the paint finish. Correct that this early issue does not have the rear light detail or silver numberplate. Correct smooth tyres have no flat spots.
Very nice!
Occasional tiny mark/rub. None of the usual rubbing to the roof, or chipping front and rear. Little rough casting at a wheel arch.
The box is very bright and fresh. Barely handled card is sturdy and crisp. Correct colour spot at the end flaps. No tears or graffiti. MInor age grubbiness only.
