Matchbox/Lesney 35e; Volvo Zoo Truck

 Matchbox 1-75 Range

This Volvo two-axle flatbed had a lion cage on the back. It was made by Lesney right at the end of the life of the brand being released in 1982. The cab is red or orange, the cage is blue or silver and the base-plate of the lorry is black red or grey. It does not appear to have remained in production when the Matchbox brand was sold on.

The one to look for has an orange cab, of the red cab models look out for a red base or a silver cage.
