Key Technical Details:

Condition Report:
The toy tractor is in good, solid vintage condition with active wheel rotation and steering. The green paint shows typical play and age wear, including minor paint chips and edge scuffing along the fenders, hood, and roof surfaces. The underlying chassis and interior wheels show some dust and light field dirt accumulation from storage.
