984 Car Carrier (1958-63)

Seen on eBay France: Car Carrier with red plastic hubs instead of the regular grey diecast wheels!

Hi all, Jan was so kind to bring this model to my attention, so I bought it. It arrived last week. I have seen this model and also the Trailer with grey plastic wheels. This model with red plastic wheels is a first for me. It looks very nice and different on the model. The red plastic wheels are also mounted on the 989 Car Carrier, the yellow and pale grey US export model. Most likely these models have been produced side by side for a short period around 1963. Anyway, I am happy with the model and will be looking for an empty box. Thank you Jan! Kind regards, Rob
