D438
Dinky 438 Ford D800 Tipper Truck. Very near mint/boxed. Yellow plastic wheels issue. From a large, stunning diverse collection with many items in old shop stock condition.
Notes
From one of the largest, private collections we have ever seen, with many items bought new at the time and stored away until now. Taken as a whole, the collection provides an exciting, kaleidoscopic snapshot of popular diecast toys issued during the 1960?s -1970?s.
A gleaming example of this Dinky truck made between 1970-77. This version has a deep metallic red cab, bright yellow tipper, white interior, yellow plastic hubs, opening doors.
Shiny silver base and as-new tyres.
Barely handled, this model is in superb, as-made condition. Note the little area of rough casting roof edge and the factory paint touch-ins at this site. (perfectly matched).
The pictorial end flap box is bright and crisp with resistant end flaps showing this box has been opened just a couple of times. Very minor storage grubbiness and a very small end flap tear. Little label at an end flap. Period price is written nearby.
