12b model + box question

Post by fintail »

Hi all

I recently found a nice early empty box for 12b:

I have a couple of loose early (knobby wheel) models I am thinking of marrying to it:

I am debating which one to put in the box. One 12b is the odd early model with painted grille - but it has touched up paint (I did this with water based paint, not to deceive but for display) and a few small chips, the other is a fairly mint model without the grille paint. Would the painted grille model be exclusive to this early box, or would both be correct?
