Deep red finish, pale blue interior, gleaming (notably unrubbed) plated fittings, spring suspension on shaped spun wheels, two figures are seated inside. Original tyres have a light flat spot. One tyre has a couple of light surface cracks.
A scarce find with shaped spun wheels – a first for QDT.

Barely a mark to the paint finish – note the factory assembly crack in the windscreen.
The picture box is bright, and complete with no tears. Period pencilled price. Minor age grubbiness and light handling wear.
