FD550
French Dinky 550 Chrysler 'Saratoga'. Near mint plus/boxed. Lilac & black issue. From The Berlin Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1961 -65, this version has a distinctive pale lilac finish with black roof detail and stripe, bright red interior, plated wheels and smooth white tyres (light flat spot to one).
A striking model on display.
Bright baseplate too.
Downgraded largely due to a light spattering of little black dots of paint (probably factory).
The large picture box is complete if a touch weary now, with some rubbing at edges etc. and the occasional little seam tear.
