Notes
This is the sought after late two-tone issue made towards the end of the run 1956-59. In authentic and original condition throughout with a pleasing sheen to the paint finish. Presents very nicely indeed, particularly difficult to find this good unboxed.
Shiny base. Smooth original tyres run well.
Mere dot or two to the paint finish.
Another exceptional model from this collector.
