Notes
This scarce Berliet Quarry Truck is in unused condition, with an all original, vivid red cab and chassis, deep yellow plastic tipping back and yellow plastic wheel hubs, silver trim, complete with intact black stack.
Shiny metal parts and supple. as-new original tyres.
What a beauty – and not a trace of sunfading either. Mechanism for raising the tipping back and locking into place works well too.
Fresh, clean and bright inner plinth in which the truck rests has a just a couple of tiny wheel slot tears.
Comes complete with the correct road sign and the clear plastic packet (opened). Packing Foam and promotional Booklet.
The end flap pictorial box is bright and crisp with none of the expected rubbing at edges. Small start of a tear at the tuck-in part of the large end flaps.
A very fine example of a scarce French Dinky commercial.
