What a beautiful model! No need to be a collector to appreciate it. This reproduction is inspired by the Ford Zephyr MK2, produced across the Channel in 1956. Dinky Toys produced it the same year, until 1960. The model is equipped with convex zamac wheels painted grey and original smooth black tires. A few small scuff marks on the roof, and discreet wear on the prominent parts. The overall appearance is very good. It's close to 4.5/5. Very nice silvering. This color harmony is magnificent! Our model has no decoration at the rear: the license plate and rear lights are not highlighted with paint. Both variants exist. It is impossible to state that this difference allows for precise dating of this model; however, the presence of smooth tires allows us to say that it comes from the first part of production. This beautiful model is offered to you at a low price. It is entirely original. Take advantage of this opportunity.

Our models
Auto Jaune Junior offers vintage toys, accessories, documents, and other spare parts that may show slight signs of wear, dirt, or missing pieces. We take great care in describing each item to accurately reflect its condition and make it a point to note any major defects or peculiarities (repainted models, paint touch-ups, crude modifications, inaccurate decals, non-original boxes, etc.).

The descriptions
However, the quality and accuracy of our description may sometimes be proportional to the value of the model: for lower-priced models, the description may be more concise. Nevertheless, each product for sale is photographed from three angles; and we have implemented the ability to zoom in on the photos (by clicking on them) to allow you to examine the product in detail.
that's only if you had it in your own hands. -
Our tools
We therefore invite you to use these various tools to carefully examine the characteristics of the models that interest you. Consequently, even if they are not mentioned in the textual description of the model, all types of defects (chips, scratches, deformations, retouching, or non-original repairs) that may be visible in the photos cannot be used as valid grounds for canceling an order.
