Very nice Tim! This version can come with either a smooth or crosshatched inner roof with the second style oblong axle support base. I have also recently found one of these with the early round axle support base that has the later crosshatched roof body on it. Your model and box look to be very nice Tim, and they were a very lucky find in that condition at the end of any show. Which Code is yours? kwakers :)

Funny you should say that Nick as that was my 1st thought when I picked it up and was waiting to see if anyone commented as I was unsure.

Wow, That's the same size as the 48b Sports boat trailer uses. I'm sure this was Lesneys smallest wheels?.
