Notes
Vivid orange finish on this sought-after Breakdown Truck. Second issue (1970-71). Complete with all delicate parts (including the little red roof light) intact. Functioning winch mechanism.
Perfect ‘Depannage Autoroutes’ at the sides.
Scratch-free window glazing. Nice silver ‘Berliet’ detail head-on, as well as headlights (all original). Occasional little mark to the paint finish.
Note that there is some re-touching to the orange finish on the jib.
The unopened clear plastic bag contains the road sign, the number plates and the little black plastic aerial which would fit on the roof.
The illustrated card box looks very fresh indeed – bright, clean and complete. Crisp rarely handled card . Tiniest star of an end flap tear. Barely any wear otherwise. Little card packing ring is included. Promotional leaflet, too.
