There is no damage to any of the metal on this car - bodywork, baseplate, wheels, axles are all perfect. The steering wheel is as new and still turns. The driver is there, complete and with no paint loss anywhere. One tyre has a flat spot but can still be turned by hand.The 3 numbers 32 are all undamaged and the white backgrounds also complete but a little faded.Almost all of the green paint is mint (condition as well as colour !) with only minor loss at the extreme front and rear and along the mould lines but even then they are hard to see.There is a tiny nick (about 2mm) on the fin behind the drivers head.The box is really very good - one side flap completely missing but otherwise no holes, tears or tape and all 8 corners are still strong.Original price, 3/6, on one end.I know this is all original, as new and untouched, repaired or altered because I have owned it since new in the 1950s.Paypal only please. Thanks for looking.
