here is a All Door boxcar by Bachmann I got recently from a garage sale for $2
Do have just the box & no frame or wheels someplace  /tyco/forum/uploaded/microbusss/20110703115852_Picture 373.jpg
Did find info on the company & apparently it went out of buisness in 1990

| Thanks 'Buss...got them for 50 cents each at a swap meet, I think they are the best of the original Bicentennial tribute cars out there. They do go very well with my Sof76 C430 and 'boose...

Here's a tobacco car:
I kind of like these for the nostalgia. Nearly every "old guy" when I was a kid chewed tobacco. This car always reminds me of the time I accidentally tipped over my great uncle's spit can (a Beech-nut coffee can) at Thanksgiving.
Notice the water delivery truck in the background...it's a Matchbox I picked up the other day. I thought it would fit, but now I think it's too small! Usually they're too big.
