Notes
Several different versions of this model were issue. This is an early issue with "PUT A TIGER In YOUR TANK " logo at rear of vehicle, jewelled headlights, bright blue interior, white steering wheel, grey filler caps and hoses. Red jockey wheels. Midnight blue-black base to the tractor unit.
In unused complete condition with both hosepipes and all six manhole covers intact.
Occasional little mark to the paint finish (mostly where the cab attaches to the tanker as you might expect).
End flap picture box is very fresh, clean and bright cHard to find these comparatively flimsy card boxes this good! Card is extremely crisp! Some storage crumpling and a couple of the tiniest of end flap tears. Card packing piece is included too.
Very nice!
A great item to add to your Dinky commercial colection!
