FD569
French Dinky 569 Berliet Stradair Side Tipper. Near mint/boxed. Scarce commercial truck from The Heart of England collection.
Notes
Issued between 1967-71, this fine and scarce commercial truck has a distinctive two-tone green finish with a fully functioning side tipping motion.
You will find the occasional little mark at a raised detail/exposed edge. Incomplete front number plate.
Some of the delicate plastic parts on the chassis have been carefully re-affixed. Model functions well.
The colourfully illustrated card box is difficult to find in good condition due to the comparative weight of the model and the flimsy nature of the end flap box. This example has fared better than most! Lovely colourfully illustrated scene is fresh and vibrant and the colours are strong. No tear or repairs and even the little serrated strip is present (although detached). Small area of surface removal at an end flap and some shelf rubbing to the underside of the box. Still feels very crisp and sound – and not a bit weary or torn!
