Notes
Original factory trail version in grey of this model which was issued between 1956-61. This particular colour version never made it past the colour trial stage however, so possibly unique or indeed one of a restricted number. Presents well with a gleaming, glossy finish and without silver fluting on the bonnet. Flat spun wheels and a shiny tinplate base. Well-shaped original tyres.
A little scratch at roof side, and an occasioanl negligible dot besides.
The early blue box is complete and bright, showing moderate age/handling wear.
One of the rarest early Corgi models.
