MATCHBOX 1968 CHEVROLET C10 NO4 1/64

One of the stars of 2024 Case D and now predictably carrying forward to Case E which Matchbox have thoughtfully included two per 24 count boxes. Already proving popular and with good reason even in countries where the real vehicle was never sold, probably due to its totally stock appearance coupled with very detailed front and rear tampo, full interior and riding on my all time favourite chrome disc wheels.
Mint and boxed.
