It's not a Dinkie.
#1

Brother in Law, restored this, all his own work. Bought as an Insurance write off, the seller had bought it as a write off, spent 2 years restoring, then wrote it off the first time he drove it!
Insurance insist on Pics, inside and out, and it's an agreed value. Sure it's 1972. everything as it was new, except the paint, correct colour, but the correct type of paint was really expensive. Getting in is difficult, getting out, is something else.
Also has 6/7 Motor bikes , all but one, Ariel's 1926/1953. He does everything himself.
Background blurred in P/S. Taken with a Olympus compact, 3.1M Pixels. Ed.

It's too perfect. Looks like a model car.

The background blur is excessive. It leads to thinking this is a model on a table, shot with a really short lens.
