Issued 1957-1960   1:76 scale   OO/HO gauge

Another working vehicle in the Dublo range was the Morris Pick-Up based on the popular Morris Oxford car. The Pick-Up was possibly not a common vehicle on British roads in the 1950's, so although it had some play value, it seems not to have been a popular model.

​

The Pick-Up was cast in one piece without the need for a base with the axles fitting though extensions to the body. It was always painted red with silver trim added to the grille, headlights and bumper. Underneath the load-bed 'Dublo Dinky Toys' was cast with 'Meccano' added under the bonnet and 'Made in England' inside the cab roof. Unlike earlier models, there was no model name added. 

​

Only one type of wheel, smooth grey plastic, was fitted to the Morris.

 

It was sold in the standard yellow end-flap Dublo box with pictures on two sides. Thjere was no upgrade.

​

Examples of the Morris Pick-Up are easy to find and often in mint condition.
