Notes
A desirable Dinky car, especially sought-after in this colour finish and a rare find with spun wheels. In all original, lustrous vivid red finish with a nice sheen to the bright paint finish without sunfading. A gleaming bright jewel of a car!
A few minor rubs at side raised body lines and a couple of marks on the front bumper edge. Occasional tiny mark besides. Stray tiny smudge of factory yellow on on one side and a dot or two of factory silver near the rear lights. Bright baseplate has a couple of minor scratches. No marks or rubs on the roof! Lovely colour vibrancy and lustre throughout. A cherished and well-stored piece.
The correct late red and yellow box is crisp and complete with no tears. Barely handled. Neatly penned writing on the top surface. Correct colour spot .
A stunning example.
