MATCHBOX REGULAR WHEEL NO.54B CADILLAC AMBULANCE


The release of the Faun was accompanied by a white S&S Cadillac Ambulance (54b). This had red cross decals, which were later replaced by labels in two sizes, blue-tinted windows and red roof lights, as well as a detailed white interior and suspension.

The base was originally flat over the rear axle but this was quickly changed to a raised panel over the rear axle. There were no other casting changes and the model survived into the Superfast era.--Model Collector
