Notes
Issued during 1959, this Ford Thames Trader has a glossy paint finish. Lettering is fine on one side, note that on the other side, the second half of the word Railways’ has been carelessly factory applied. Note too the numbering on that side is incomplete. Well-shaped original tyres and clear glazing. Note the usual marking due to contact with the detachable back when it clips into place – this has been disguised at some time with maroon paint. Few little marks besides. With drop-down tailgate. Spare wheel.
Box is bright and complete if showing a little age grubbiness. Informative label at a short lid end with correct colour spot detail. Light wear. Rare to find with the original card packing piece:
Picture Card and promotional leaflet are included.
