Very well done Mike
You are to be congratulated on this one, both for finding it and then for not saying 'repaint' as I'm pretty sure I would have done......

Hello Ewan.
thanks for the Post to the model.
I am not a painter of interesting RW models.
I love the models just as they are.

Kids loved this model, and were playing a long time ago with this car.
Every scratch tells a story of his past.

Greetings Mike

Others may have been ignored by us as 're-paints' over the years, now we can look for them with different eyes. kwakers

I agree with Dick, a lot of nice models are ignored or just overlooked. Especially by this red model my first thought would be another re-painted model (if I did no know about it from Vectis).

when we have opened the topic 44c, just to remember, there are two unlisted variations:
a) small double braces

[Diecast]

b) large triangular double braces

with or without central rivet

Very interesting Antonin,
further analysis ... the Matchbox models.

Great interest for the opinion of Christian.
Where is my Austrian friend from Linz?

Typically has 44c a turquoise refrigerator box, simillar colour like e.g. 1e Mercedes Truck. Here is one model with green refrigerator box. It had been spotted by someone already?
