Ford Transit Matchbox 1986 Superfast 1:55 EXPRESS PARCEL SERVICE Van

The model depicts a Ford Transit in a delivery van version, finished in white. The sides of the body feature clear Express Parcel Service lettering, complemented by black, green and yellow graphic elements and racing number 88. The enclosed cargo body, characteristic high roof and straightforward body proportions effectively convey the utilitarian nature of this vehicle. The miniature is made from a combination of metal and plastic, and measures approximately 83 mm in length, corresponding to a scale of about 1:55. This diecast model dates from 1986 and was offered in the Superfast series. The example is loose, so it may show signs of previous use, such as minor scuffs, worn lettering or small areas of paint loss. Despite this, it retains clear courier markings and the recognisable silhouette of the Ford Transit.

Used, collectible diecast model; after restoration it is like new (without a box, unless a box is shown in the photos). We restore models with 3D-printed replacements for missing parts and special paints made for restoring model cars. If the model shows signs of use, it has been intentionally left partly unrestored to keep its individual vintage character. The photos show the actual condition of the model.

The date given in the title or description is not always the date the casting was made. It may refer to the design of the model, the first casting series or the production of the real car. We give the dates the manufacturer states on the base. If in doubt, check all information against the photo of the base of the model.
