Sadly it's a copy. Note spanner to front of tank ...this is incorrect , should be on a slider as well.
Regards
Steve

Certainly not as old as that, before you start looking at any detail, there are far more obvious issues, both the metal and the way it has been manufactured, very different from original badges, I'd get a refund of any monies paid if I were you.
