D57/003
Dinky 57/003 Chevrolet Impala. Hong Kong Dinky. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce issue in ALL-YELLOW in EXPORT BOX. From The East Netherlands Collection.
Notes
One of the small range of Dinky models made in Hong Kong between 1965-67. Highly attractive 1:42 scale models, all presented in distinctive pictorial boxes.
This model is a difficult find in all-yellow finish. Suspension is a little weak on one wheel. Matt baseplate, chrome spun wheels.
Upon minute inspection, you will see a couple of (possibly factory) retouches. Really difficult to notice! Couple of very small bumper rubs.
The fresh,clean and colourful box is clean with quite a crisp feel to the card. Notably, this example still has the Mr. Dealer strip in place. Carefully replaced cellophane. These fragile boxes nearly always have tears to the cellophane. Minor age wear besides.
