Shiny metal parts, including axle ends. Glossy paint finish presents so well.
Couple of minor marks that are easily overlooked.
The early buff picture box is sturdy and crisp, looking rarely handled. Box shows the first type cab variation. Complete bright paper label. Correct colour spot. Rusty staples and a period note on one side of the lid.
