Very nice example with a great condition box. Some may find that particular box is hard to find due to the model's upgrade to 'Superfast' wheels and a new box design during 1970 giving the 'F' box a reletively short life span from 1968-70 only, but even the 'E' box before it only had a 1967-68 life span so why it is harder to find I do not know.

Thanks Ghosty for the comments and the added information about this particular model and box. Are my pictures the right way up as I have to upload them from my IPad upside down. :lol:

Wrong Ghosty the type "E" box was life span 1964 to 1970 apart from the "F" box the "C" box was only 1961 to 1963.

Hello Tin-Tin one to look out for is the one with Black Plastic Wheels (solid) not the one with tyres ,

The one with the BPW is the 1st; issue.

What I meant George was the 'E' box for the Silver Shadow was 1967-70.
