Notes
Scarce second issue with a blue tin canopy and ‘Radio Rescue RAC’ on both sides only. In all original condition, and correct that this version has no roof sign or interior. Shaped spun wheels. Tow hook. Lacks aerial (looks as if it never had one!).
Shiny base (light reflection in picture) and as-new treaded tyres.
The model is in all original condition with a near mint paint finish. Tin canopy is well-shaped. Very small ‘blistered’ paint area on the canopy. Logo and lettering are complete on both sides.
Occasional little mark to the paint finish. Little mark on the interior surface of one side window.
The unusual plain factory-stamped box is complete, strongly-coloured and crisp, with minor wear only. Period pencilled price.
A most unusual version, and only the second we have ever handled.
