Notes

QDT have sold just one other high line version – and that was back in 2008!
This model is a superb example of a very difficult version to find – deep tan and cream ‘high line’ version with cream wheels.
Early version so no highlighted details at the rear. Smooth tyres.

Dinky toys 172 studebaker land cruiser kk635 base

Obviously barely handled, this model is really the merest shade off pristine. Just the occasional tiny mark. Some tarnishing to the base in places. Smooth tyres are well shaped.
The pictorial card box is clean, complete and bright, with a crisp feel to the rarely handled card. Light wear. The correct colour spot at the end flaps.

For comparison only, please take a look at this example on the right when set alongside the lowline version:
