Notes
Issued between 1964-69, this unusual Dinky truck comes complete with all three removable ballast weights, the red prop shafts on the underside rotate when the truck is moving along – just like the real thing! The weights are nearly always quite heavily chipped and they also tend to mark the silver chassis. This example has fared much better than many! Bright and complete “Leyland On Test” paper labels on the cab. Complete with driver and steering wheel. Complete paper label ‘ON TEST’ at the rear too. Tyres are fine, clean and well-shaped.
Minor marking where the weights have been placed – and tiny marking to the weights, with one having a couple of marks on the highest point.
The colourful and detailed pictorial box is complete, clean and bright. No splits or repairs. With pale yellow lower half. Period price.
