French Dinky Toys 823 GMC Tanker

Notes

A sought-after item indeed from the French Dinky factory issued between 1969-70 only. This particular example is in very close to mint condition. Hard to find a mark to the paint finish. Delicate transfers are complete on both sides. Paper label “Liquides Inflammables”* is intact. The filler caps on the top of the tank are always susceptible to damage – pleased to say that this example is absolutely fine.
This example comes with the spare wheel behind the cab. Shiny axles and well-shaped original tyres.

Very fresh, clean and bright card plinth (no tears). Leaflet and correct road sign are still present. Number-plates applied. Card packing wedge included.

The outer box is complete and bright. Couple of tiny end flap tears. Barely any wear besides. Residue from a price label on one side.
A scarce model which is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
