D106
Dinky 106 Austin Atlantic Convertible. Blue version with red wheels & interior. Very, very near mint/boxed. From an impeccable collection in The Netherlands.
Notes
This collection is a sheer pleasure to handle, carefully compiled by an exacting collector.
A desirable , classic Dinky model finished in light blue version with a vivid red interior and matching red wheels. Attractive original silver detailing on the bonnet, boot and bumpers. Cream steering wheel. In virtually pristine condition with such an outstanding lustre to the all original paint finish.
The picture box is clean and brightly-coloured with the correct colour spot. Note that this is the early box with ‘106’ in a black oval on both box faces (later red oval). A grubby mark on the top surface. Old tape residue extending from one end flap to the box underside ( originally kept the box closed). Minor handling wear besides.
Not an easy find in this condition.
