Notes
Issued made between 1952-54 only, before it was re-numbered. This eye-catching commercial truck has a bright red and yellow finish. Not an easy find in this condition with perfect “SHELL CHEMICALS LIMITED” lettering on both sides. Presents nicely with a perfect “SHELL” label at the rear. 20mph sticker has a tiny nick.
Pleasing lustrous finish – and all original!
Original grey tyres (a little stained in places).
Very small chip at the front bumper and another at the rear of the model. Few mere dots besides.
The deep blue box has a complete paper label. Clean and bright , with typical age wear. Light storage crumple to the vivid blue base.
