Notes
This Ford Fairlane Police Car was made between 1962-66 and has a gleaming black finish, white front doors, open window, red roof light and aerial. Concave spun wheels with suspension. Matt black baseplate. Complete ‘POLICE’ lettering at bonnet, boot, and doors (save for the tiniest edge furl to the letter ’E at the boot).
A couple of little chips to the paint finish and a few stray dots of factory silver on the driver’s front wing and door. couple of front bumper chips.
The pictorial card box is clean, bright and complete. Crisp, with one end flap in particular being resistant to opening (feels as if it has never been opened). The other large end flap has a crease to the tuck-in part. Light wear.
