Picked this up at a hobby shop in Mishawaka, IN. $3.75 It is missing one trap door, but it is in otherwise good condition. Now I got the Planters , Jello , Boraxo and C&H,,just missing the Budweiser.

You got that for $4! I normally see stuff like those go upwards of 5-10 dollars. Not bad, jb, not bad at all.

Tyco made Budweiser cars too?! Weren't those Tycos targeted for children? Whatever the case is, I didn't know Tyco made those.

Jbsmith, are you from around Mishawaka? I've been out that way a few times to see the NYC museum, but I always seem to end up there on Sundays or Monday's when its closed. Was the hobby shop you were at near the NS/ex-CR line? I cant think of the street, but there's a hobby shop I got to out that way, but it too has been closed every time I'm in that area.

I would suggest getting on EBay where these cars can always be found quickly.. It would Save a lot of time with posting I wants and I needs 100 times a month....
