| Another very plain little model, and few variants to it but they are interesting. Firstly the tonneau at the rear was painted in a thick grey paint and then dropped very quickly ( probably another cost saving feature as this extra trim was all done by hand back then ). The grille and radiator shell were silver to start with but changed to gold soon after and then even the grille was left out. Any of the grey versions are rare issues being so limited. The last version is probably the hardest to find and on this one even the bare metal steering wheel was painted green. Axles may be crimped or latter, rivetted. | ||
