Todd,
You're right, that's a SI box with a SII truck - notice the tiny bump atop
the windscreen on the box, that's supposed to be the SI driver's pith
helmet.
A few months ago I picked up a few matchbox guides from Amazon and they do a
great job of verifying exactly what came out of the factory and when.
I've managed to collect an embarrassing amount of early LR die-casts and
have them all out on shelves in my office. It's sometimes a wonder that I
ever get anything done here. Oh, if I could only make some Schlemmer-esque
movies!
