Dinky 501/901 Foden Diesel 8-Wheel Wagon. Red & fawn, 2nd type. From 1956. Near mint plus/boxed. From The Reference Collection.
Notes
Issued during May, 1956, this classic Dinky truck has a red cab and chassis, greyish-brown or earth back, grooved red Supertoy hubs. Presents well, with a fine lustre to the paint finish. Bright baseplate too:
Just a few little marks as you might expect at some wheel arches and a couple of tiny wheel arch touch-ins. Faint roof scuff due to box contact
The striped Supertoys box is very nice indeed – complete, clean and vividly-coloured. Barely any wear at all.
