Matchbox 6a; Quarry Truck (55mm)

The 6a Quarry Truck was in the range from 1954 to 1959. It is always orange with a grey tipper. For most of its life it had metal wheels but a few late example have grey plastic wheels and these are really valuable. The blue one is a re-release from the 1993 Matchbox Originals range to celebrate 40 years of Matchbox.
