Notes
From an outstanding private collection, a lifetime’s legacy, with his proceeds from the sale to go to the charities closest to his heart.
This model has an all original rich chocolate brown (not maroon) and mid-tan colour finish, silver trim, fawn hubs, (not cream or tan) grey treaded tyres.
Barely a mark to the all original paint finish. Tyres have maintained their true grey colour (very minor flat spot or two).
For comparison only, please take a look at this model on the left when placed alongside the maroon version with tan wheels (also available at time of writing).
It comes complete with a bright yellow picture box which presents well. Minor handling wear. Nice to see the card packing piece is still present too.
