THIS CAR IS 100% ORIGINAL AND WAS PURCHASED FROM AN ORIGINAL OWNER ALONG WITH OTHER AMERICAN FLYER TRAINS FROM THIS ERA. THE OVERALL CONDITION OF THIS CAR IS A STRONG VERY GOOD PLUS TO LOW EXCELLENT IN CONDITION. THERE ARE NO CRACKS IN THE PLASTIC AT THE SCREW HOLE OR THE SLOT WHERE THE METAL FRAME SLIDES INTO SHELL. THE BLACK LETTERING ON THE BOTH SIDES OF THE CAR IS VERY STRONG AND SHOWS ONLY VERY MINOR MARKING. THE WORST PART OF THE CAR IS ALONG ONE SIDE OF THE LADDER.
