Notes
This is a rare French Dinky item, issued between 1969-71. In matte olive drab military finish with grey plastic launcher, red and white ‘Nord Missile’. Painted concave hubs. Fine tread original tyres are supple and run well.
Occasional little mark only.
Typically the box for this model (when you can find one) gets very easily damaged due to the softness of the card and the weight of the truck.
This pictorial box has fared better than most (minor creasing and a small end flap tear). Comes with the bright card plinth on which the truck sits.
