In red, with green tinted windows and silver plated base and grille. This is the earlier version with the full length silver base. The tipper tips, and is supported by friction against an extension to the baseplate. This was replaced by the familiar Matchbox 'hydrosleeve' in later releases. The six wheels are black plastic.
Generally excellent, just a couple of chips on the tipper's edge. The type F1 box is excellent too; there is slight wear at two corners.
