Notes

Issued between 1966-69, this Ford articulated truck is in virtually mint condition. This truck just gleams! Complete with both wing mirrors intact (including the little reflective ‘mirror’ pieces), straight horns on the cab roof, and perfect “EXPRESS SERVICE” detailing on both sides of the bright silver, untarnished sliding doors. So eye-catching and it comes complete with the original mechanic figure, too.

Negligible mark or two.
General impression is this Ford Truck is in unused condition.
The bright pictorial card plinth on which the model sits has strong vivid colours. Most still have the push-out tabs in place. Couple of tiny wheel slot tears.
The pictorial end flap box is complete and bright. Light wear only. Period price label at an end flap.

Nice to see that this example comes complete with the card sleeve and most unusually, with a small packing wedge which fits behind the cab. Corgi Club Membership Form.
