Notes
Issued between 1965-70, this Mini Van has a vibrant blue and white finish, bright shaped spun wheels with suspension, and a silver base. A particularly difficult find with a blue interior – and indeed the first we have ever offered for sale.
RAC transfers are bright and complete on both sides of the van. One of the delicate transfers on the opening back doors has a small nick, the other has an even smaller nick. Road sign on the roof has a small edge nick. Occasioanl little body line rub and some polish residue which has settled in some crevices and could be carefully removed.
The colourful pictorial box is bright and complete. Some age wear including a couple of seam tears and a stain.
