Dinky 172
Dinky 172 Fiat 2300. Two tone blue. Near mint plus/boxed (repair). From The 25 Year Collection in California.
Notes
It has been a while since we have had one of these!
Finished in original two-tone blue, this model looks unused with a lustrous finish, shiny spun wheels with suspension, and bright red detailed interior. Button on the base opens the bonnet. Jewelled headlights and the delicate plastic opening tailgate is intact. Number plates front and rear.
A few minor marks only.
The colourfully-illustrated picture box is clean and complete, although the tuck-in parts of both large end flaps have been re-attached (the box is so crisp and being stored in a dry hot climate, these card boxes do become a touch brittle at weak points over the years). No graffiti and the colours are vibrant.
