Year of Release: 1985

The dates, wheels and box type don't really add up for this version. I've had three of them through the business, all in Type H wood grain boxes which were in use in the mid seventies, but this car was released in 1985, having the same wheels as the cars from the start of the run in 1972. The answer is that it was only ever released as part of a 3 vehicle gift set in this colour. Presumably in 1985 they still had some of the old narrow tread brass wheels hanging around and used them up on this release. I'm guessing previous owners had put them in wood grain Type H boxes to get the vintages of the box and the wheel types to line up. That sort of thing happens a lot with Models of Yesteryear.
