Notes

Issued during 1963 with a type 3 Leyland grille, this classic Dinky bus with plastic wheels is a very difficult version to find. This example presents well with a lustrous original vivid red and cream paint finish, treaded tyres. Sloping lettering on both sides (few little dots/tiny rub on a few of the letters).

Occasional very small mark to the paint finish.
The correct lighter yellow pictorial box is vividly-coloured, crisp and complete with all end flaps. Correct colour spot for this version. A little light wear including grubbiness.
