Vivid original orange finish on this close to perfect Breakdown Truck. Second issue (1970-71). Complete with all delicate parts (including the little red roof light) intact. Functioning winch mechanism.
One little chip at the top edge of the jib. Perfect ‘Depannage Autoroute’ on one side, faint scratch on the other. Scratch-free window glazing. Nice silver ‘Berliet’ detail head-on as well as headlights (all original).
Includes the correct road sign, the number plates and the little black plastic aerial (often missing!)
The illustrated card box is bright and complete. Crisp rarely handled card and no tears at end flaps. Small area of light surface removal at an end flap along with the remains of a shop label. Very minor age wear besides. No graffiti.
