Manufacturer description

The two-tone Ford Zodiac Mk II was launched in 1956 as the upmarket version of the Ford Zephyr and produced at the Ford Dagenham plant. The differences between the two models included many external features, faithfully copied on the 1:76 scale Oxford replica. Note the wide front grille and elongated tail fins in particular.

Our 4-door Zodiac comes in one of the popular colour schemes of the time, a rich maroon and off white with lots of contrasting chrome to bumpers, door handles, radiator and wheels, as well as a chrome strip running along the waist. Registered WDM 842, a final flourish sees the Zodiac 'signature' printed on the rear wing section and across the boot.
