Notes
Issued between 1966-69, this Ford articulated truck is in close to 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.
Close inspection reveals a litle tarnished area to the corner of the horns assembly and a thin light scratch on one of the sliding doors (minor). Couple of little edge marks to the paint finish.
General impression is this Ford Truck is in unused condition.
The bright pictorial card plinth on which the model sits has strong vivid colours, fresh and crisp. Very minor wear only.
The pictorial end flap box is complete, very clean and bright! One little tear at a corner and the number ‘200’ is pencilled on each surface (small print).
Nice to see that this example comes complete with the card wrap-around piece.
