The Phillip Bowdidge guides match the major model variations with box types and variations for the earlier RW models. Very hard to find these guides though and long out of print...

I understand that.
Knowing that this box isn't the first type one, I will put a GPW cloud in it. I just hope it isn't impossible.
Stephane, can you show me the box you have, because Six (6), designs exist with the drawing of the car in Red and not all of them had a Grey Plastic wheel model inside.

Thank's Stephane for the picture of your box. Models with the light Grey plastic wheels were placed inside that design of box, so you are probably OK with the model you have put in it.

I have a picture of a dark Grey plastic wheeled model with the same box, but can not verify it is the original model from the box.

Thanks Kevin.
I'm gonna see if I have a light SPW one. I even must have a look at your posts to check what is SPW and GPW... The difference isn't familiar to me.

SPW are brighter and have a marbled appearance, whereas GPW are uniform in colour

Thanks. That will help me.

I got 6 PW copies. I think I will find both the wheel types.
