A nice Lesney model. The black wheel ones are harder to find.

What a lovely crisp box beautifully printed.........and one of the finest early Lesneys that deserved its long production run.
5/6 of these that I own have bpw, and the majority that I have seen have bpw and I rate the knobby bpw versions as very easy to find in europe.I am still after a metal wheeled early issue in good shape..........

Love it. That was my first Matchbox vehicle (gray wheels), along with the Thunderbird. (Thanks, Aunt Edna!) I think I still have them - just don't know exactly where they are.
