FD582
French Dinky 582 Citroen Breakdown Truck 'DINKY TOYS'. Very, very near mint/boxed. Exceptional late issue with concave wheels & black plastic tow hook. From a beautiful, single-owner collection, some 25 years in the making.
Notes
A fine gleaming example of this nicely finished Citroen Breakdown vehicle, made between 1956-59 under this re-numbering. Such a lustrous finish throughout, with complete ‘DINKY SERVICE’ lettering on both sides and a very bright winding handle. This truck has rarely seen the light of day. Late issue with red concave wheels and a black plastic tow hook.
In wonderful, virtually mint condition -downgraded due to a little front bumper box rub.
The pictorial box is very clean, fresh and bright. Crisp. MInor age wear and a tiny seam tear.
One of our favourite French Dinky models!
