Notes
Issued between 1966-69, this Ford articulated truck is in superb, very close to mint condition. This truck just gleams! Complete with both wing mirrors intact (including the little reflective ‘mirror’ pieces), straight horns on the cab roof, and perfect “EXPRESS SERVICE” detailing on both sides of the bright silver, untarnished sliding doors. So eye-catching and it comes complete with the original mechanic figure, too.
Couple of little marks to the paint finish visible if scrutinised.
General impression is this Ford Truck is in unused condition.
The bright pictorial card plinth on which the model sits has strong vivid colours, fresh and crisp. Tiny wear only.
The pictorial end flap box is complete, very clean and bright! Very minor handling wear. Note the strip of reddish residue on the box underside. Period price label at an end flap.
Nice to see that this example comes complete with both card wrap-around pieces and Corgi Club Membership Form, too.
