Notes
In all-original condition, this delightful early racing car is in all original vivid range and green finish with racing number 6 on both sides. Smooth black wheels and original smooth white tyres.
Very minor expansion of the metal now, so the wheels do not turn freely. Minor fatigue to the metal.
This model represents so well the early days of Dinky when a model was sold simply from a shopkeeper’s trade box of six. A poignant reminder of simpler times.
