Notes
A fine example in scarce matt white, with red plastic hubs, blue metal driver, plastic steering wheel, matt baseplate. Late issue made between 1960-62 presented in the correct light yellow card picture box.
Obviously never played with, this model is in very close to mint condition. One very minor surface mark mark at the central fin and a stray flick of factory red paint on one side of the radiator. Little casting dot besides.
Correct paler yellow late issue box is bright and complete with all end flaps (one set are particularly resistant to opening) – and no punctures! Minor age/storage grubbiness on the top surface.
Not an easy variation to find!
