I picked up a Plymouth shifter and would like to see a picture of one complete.
Mine is made in Yugoslavia.
It looks almost new and runs great. There is a spot between the front windshield and looks like something goes there??
Is there a muffler to go in the top screw hole??
I don't find any head light??
If anyone can help that would be great.
Thanks.
Ken

Check my LOTW for this week.

I've got two of these, one Chessie and one CP Rail. The missing piece is just a small plastic circle--I guess it's supposed to look like a headlight or something.

I've never seen any type of muffler for the screw hole on top, and my two don't have headlights either. As for how they run, try pulling more than 5 cars and you'll change your mind.

I'll have to double check, but the handrail on the cab of yours doesn't look right to me. Is it just painted, or is it a separate piece?

Won mine in a bet with a shrewd hobby shop owner.... $5 if it didn't run, $10 if it did...I won, a bit of cleaning and it ran just fine....

Hi Shay,
Thanks for the reply.The hand rail behind the cab is a metal one the rest are molded. I have a Tyco switcher that have a headlight and I installed ditch light for and aft looks great. i think I'll do the same with this one. I think I'll put a headlight on it too. It would look more real!!!It also has the windows installed which I think makes it look better.
Thanks for your help.
Do you have a picture of yours you could send me.
Thanks for your time.
Ken
