I want to find a very early D4, likely 1950-1951 with the wrinkle gray base, they seem to have an unusual chimney mount as well? This is the only one I have ever seen, so I am not sure if it is correct. It would have came with the early style burner tray like Jan has.
Very doubtful that one of those will turn up...I have those pictures on record too, and this is the only one i have seen as well.I have personally seen quite a few very early wrinkle paint models, and none of them have had that smooth firebox and simple smokestack support.I can only assume that this D4 is a prototype, or a part of a very small first batch, from just before the bricked coppersheets was introduced.
