This is a Triang Minic 3031 Reversing Riley from the Clockwork Range. Dating from around 1950 it has a Green Plastic Body, Polished Tinplate Base and Clockwork Motor. The base moves back and forth to engage forward and reverse gears. It comes complete with its Clockwork Key and in its original Picture Box. Model Condition: Original - Very Good - The plastic is very clean and the metal base has a little tarnishing. The motor is untested (the key is very difficult to engage through the hole onto the motor spindle and therefore I would assume that the motor doesn't work?) and the base moves back and forth. Wheels and tyres are excellent. Box Condition: Original - Very Good - Complete with all flaps and no repairs. There is some age marking with edge/corner wear. One picture side has a pencil price mark. No old labels. This is a lovely model to add to any collection and a bonus that the original box is complete - very rare. This model is so hard to find now!
