Issued between 1965-69.This is the later casting version, so note this example has the horizontal casting line on the front wings, the less pronounced boot ‘bulge;’ larger rear lights, and other little casting differences too.
Occasionally tiny mark.
The pictorial box is complete, clean and bright. Crisp feel. Small edge crease.
