Grabbed this from my grandfathers office this past weekend when his memorial service was held. Definitely has seen better days but I remember being a kid and zooming this all around the house.

I’m sorry for your loss.

The play wear just means you have lots of memories with it!

Also, I shared this with Live and Let Diecast (I think, Kinja is giving me issues at the moment). They will appreciate your post over there, too.

Nice barnfind. Another Matchbox with Lesney’s fine wire wheels. Looks like the driver is out taking a break.

From my collection, what it looked like when new:

Great keepsake to remind you of your Grandfather! Keep it as is, don’t restore it. You can find pristine ones all the time, but this is one-of-a-kind.

My condolences, for your loss.
