I Think this the hard to find Tippax 11x45 non vent hole truck. I have shown it to Nick who from the picture thinks it is.

Here are the 15c models with-out a peephole on the left with the 10 x 24 tread wheels,

on the right the one with 11 x 45 tread wheels. Which is the harder one to find.

Hi, It's part of my collection I have had since I was a kid. Most of my Matchbox cars belonged to my cousin before me but I can remember as a kid every Saturday going to Queens Crescent market in North London where a guy had a large bucket filled to the brim with boxed Matchbox cars/trucks etc, some were of the earlier types but most were the later 1970s types and they were 10p each or 6 for 50p, 15 for £1. I would get 1 car as my pocket money didn't stretch to the better deals.
