M1
Morestone Bedford Car Carrier. Very near mint/boxed. With 4 chocks & Instruction Slip on the inside of the box lid. Scarce. From an impeccable collection in The Netherlands.
Notes
Issued between 1956-57, this is a pleasing example by Morestone. In all original condition, this articulated car carrier has a Bedford Tractor Unit finished in brilliant orange with a silver trim, grey carrier unit with detachable ramps and four detachable chocks. Diecast orange wheels.
Original supple tyres run well.
Looks unused – wonderfully glossy finish to the orange cab in particular.
Couple of little contact marks where 2 wheel arches have come into contact with the trailer. Couple of little marks besides.
The colourful lift-off lid box is clean and bright. Presents well. Couple of minor storage partial punctures to box base have pressed back into place. Slight storage crumple and minor age wear besides. No repairs.
A difficult find with all four chocks and both detachable ramps.
