Nice find Mike, I have one in the lighter blue. It was just luck because it came in a job lot.

There are three subvariations by the model without the tow guide.
1) quite rare variation with windows without ribs

2) then came perhaps the decision to riveted the windows. Two ribs were added on the underside of the windows.

3) then they came to the earlier decision with the unflattened rivet, but the ribs were preserved. All the later models have the windows with the ribs.

Hi Antonin.
You have very good knowledge about the Matchbox models.
Thank you, for those interested information.
But I ask you for more precise photos of your information.
Sorry, my opinion.
It would help a lot more for us.
thank you
