Notes
_Hard to find in any condition and certainly never in multiples – we are delighted to have for sale this South African Dinky model. Unfinished models were exported to South Africa from 1966. They were sent as castings and painted and assembled there, largely as a way of getting around the laws prohibiting export of finished goods to South Africa at this time.
Finished throughout in deep cream with a bright red interior, suspension on shiny spun wheels. South African rivets, and as-new fine tread tyres. Gloss base. An exceptionally scarce South African Dinky model in this colour finish. So rare to come to the market-place.
In all original condition with a sprinkling of marks to the paint:
