Any chance of a photograph (also of the base, showing the rivets)?
Finally found the Dodge Ambulance. To me the body looks original and the lesney base looks original, "but" looks to be that the rivets may have been tampered with as there was some glue residue around them from possibly been removed. What do you think?

Hi John,
as suspected, the base was drilled out and the model repainted.
But looks good in this oliv color to me. On the lower edge of the
tailgate you can see the original beige color.

Someone has gone to quite a bit of effort with this model, especially with the word AMBULANCE on the rear of the vehicle.

Yes this was quite a lot of work. Another detail is the interior is brown above and yellow from below.

Thanks fellow entusiasts for the feedback on the Dodge Ambulance, I do agree with the comment that someone has put a lot of work into it to get it where it is.
Have just posted another Superkings model in the authentication section as I think this is a genuine one this time, I'm hoping "
