Y1 Model T Ford
In pic.1, the earlier model, the base plate columns are missing and there are just the 2 holes for attachment (version 1). In pics 2 the columns have been added (version 13). The first model has the metal steering wheel, whilst the other two are black plastic. The seats and roof can be either the normal black or bright red plastic but I have never seen them mixed before. In picture 4 is the red roof (version 12). In pic.5 you can see the bases with & without the columns. The model on the box in pic 2 is nice as it has a label inside (pic 3) which states that it was presented by the Gates Motor Group for their Diamond Jubilee. A nice little touch which makes it more interesting.
So far I have not managed to find one in Gold plated form.
