Notes
In very close to perfect condition, this scarce transition issue model is finished in vibrant orange and pale grey with green plastic shutters and red diecast wheels. Window glazing. Black knobbly tyres. Silver radiator and headlight assembly. Bright shiny winding handle works well.
A difficult find in any condition.
Hard to find a mark to the paint finish but close inspection finds a couple of small dabs of later orange paint.
The correct paler yellow late picture box is bright and complete ALittle age/handling wear including the occasional very small tear. Complete with all end flaps. With card packing ring.
