Notes
An all-original early issue from 1953-54, since it has its rear axle located in cast lugs, and no triangular lugs at side of the number plate. It has a bright and distinctive mid-blue cab and chassis,(more usual finish is violet blue) red back, lighter blue ridged hubs. Large painted hook. Barely any marks at all e.g. one little mark at rear corner of flat bed and minor (factory) paint irregularity to flatbed. Cab roof and wheel arches are unmarked, axles, bolt fixing and baseplate are shiny. Bright silver radiator and lights. Paint finish is vibrant and glowing. Complete with spare wheel.
The blue and white striped picture box is complete and bright. No splits or rusting at the staples. The original owner has written his first name on the lid in small letters.
A fine example of a sought-after Dinky commercial truck.
