Description

This Ford Model A was introduced in 1978 as the A-OK in green, as part of the Flying Colors series. In 1981, it was re-issued in metalflake red, then as part of the Real Riders series of 1983. It has been said that during the 1983 run, the tool was damaged and production ceased until 2008, when the casting was re-tooled for the Since '68 Series.
