Need some help/info if anyone knows. Picked up the white/red PA Tyco car (logo is on the underside) knowing it was different from the standard green/blue car but haven't been able to find any info on its uniqueness. Is this a early variant or an elaborate aftermarket repaint? Thanks!

Unknown at this time if it was sold in limited quantities. I read Tyco did experimental color variations of certain items.
This could be one of them. Perhaps an employee at high level in their company had that car for decades.

Common theories are that this is:
-a misprint -a early mock-up -a recycled repaint of another mass-produced red car
