Notes
A classic Dinky commercial truck.
This Dinky Foden comes in a shining green finish with all chain posts intact and unbroken, original chain.
Shiny metal parts and a fine gloss to the rich green finish. Few negligible marks to the paint finish. Very close inspection finds a few small retouches.
Original tyres are radial and well-shaped.
A few of the earliest 2nd type models were housed in the last remaining (rare) 1st type boxes. Note the 1st type radiator pictured on the box. Bright and complete with very minor wear and a shelf scuff to the underside.
Nice to see the original early card packing piece with deep blue strip detail (matching the box) as well as the Dinky Quality Control Tag.
A sought-after Dinky classic.
