Dinky Toys 39A Unic-Boillot Autotransporter

The Dinky Toys 39A Unic-Boillot Car Transporter is a special and beautiful miniature model that was produced by Meccano France between 1959 and 1968. The model is a detailed scale replica of the Unic-Boillot car transporter, a sturdy French workhorse that was used to transport cars to dealers and garages in the 1950s and 1960s.

Unic, a well-known French truck brand, developed the Boillot transporters for the efficient transport of vehicles over long distances. These transporters were known for their solid construction, large load capacity and reliable performance – exactly what you needed in a period when cars were becoming increasingly popular and car sales were growing.

The Dinky Toys 39A perfectly reflects this industrial character. The model is made to a scale of approximately 1:43 and made of die-cast metal. It has a characteristic loading platform that offers space for several cars and is equipped with detailed cabins, bumpers and realistic wheels. The carefully applied paint and fine details give the miniature an authentic look that still attracts collectors today.

The paint has remained beautiful and shiny and the details are sharp and complete. The model is complete and shows only minimal signs of use that hardly detract from its charm. The original box is also present. Although the box shows slight wear, it is otherwise complete and offers a beautiful presentation of this collectible piece.

The Dinky Toys 39A Unic-Boillot Car Transporter is a popular collector's item because of its representation of classic French transport and the rarity of the French Dinky line. This example, with original box in beautiful condition, offers a nostalgic and valuable window into the car transport of the 1950s and 1960s - and is a wonderful addition to any Dinky collection.
