Notes
This is an unusual late issue example of this model which was produced between 1955-60. It has a matte white finish, light brown interior, blue driver and spun aluminium wheels. Two dark blue stripes and racing numbers ‘31’. Complete with an intact original windscreen, driver and steering wheel.
Very close to mint, all original condition.
Couple of tiny marks to the blue stripes. The paint has a slight ‘orange peel’ texture.
The correct red and yellow late issue box is bright, crisp and complete with all end flaps intact.
Light wear with minor grubbiness in places.
An interesting and sought-after variation of this popular Dinky racing car.
