Dinky Toys 178 Plymouth Plaza
Plymouth Plaza by Dinky Toys, No. 178 . Salmon pink & green. Very near mint/boxed. From The Swiss-French Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1959-63, this version has a lustrous salmon pink and light green finish with shining shaped spun wheels and well-shaped white treaded tyres (rather grubby now). In all original condition throughout, this is an eye-catching classic Dinky car on display:
Untarnished base has tiny marking. Little drip of factory silver above a headlight and a
couple of tiny rubs to the front edge of the roof. Couple of tiny marks besides.
The plain red and yellow box is complete and bright, with a crisp feel to the card. Green colour spot at an end flap. Vibrant colours. Very minor wear only.
