I think they are silently breeding in my storage cabinet. This Atlas F7 is with flywheel
transmission, weighs like a pound, pulls like an ox, and was very recently
professionally cleaned and oiled. It runs like a Swiss Watch. Needs air horns.
It is custom painted, as evidenced by a tiny over spray on parts of the red swoosh.
I am looking to trade it for a Tyco Lipton Tea Hopper or a Tyco Maxwell House Hopper
in good condition with/without box. Or I'd trade it for five Tyco Auto Loaders with,
cars, in good condition, or a Tyco Bubble Yum Hopper.

I have a Lipton Tea hopper but it's not tyco. Wanna say it's Ahm. It's in pristine condition too.
If you are not having fun, you are not doing it right.

Jeff & Ray, The Lipton Hopper is AHM.. Tyco never made any Lipton that I can think of. One really nice AHM hopper is the Canadia Club. Looks like it cost them $50 to manufacture it...

Well that's inner'esting. I sold an AHM Canadian Club hopper on Ebay for $25, new
in box. Which covered the cost of the Tyco lot I'd bought it from. I really like the
AHM CC, really smashing graphics, but I really didn't like the alcohol theme,
teetotaler that I am.
I have still have a nice Schlitz reefer I failed in trying to trade off. I'd do it for
the Coast to Coast if Micro is inner'ested. Pine Sol I gots, but picky me, I don't
run it 'cause it ain't Tyco.
I did make an exception for the AHM Wonder Bread hopper, and paid a small
fortune for it, just because I couldn't resist the polka dots.

| Funny, Jeff. You don't like the alcohol theme. My late father drank heavy sometimes. TOTALLY turned me against the stuff.... I have to think a while before buying those pieces. But if I like the piece I'll buy it...

I already promised the Schlitz reefer to Wildcoupe, sorry.
But I gots a Hunts Pudding, Canada Dry Ginger Ale, or
an Ajax Hopper (rough graphics) to swap for yer Coast to Toast.
BTW, you gave me an idea, and I turned my
Pine Sol into a Conrail Box- just sprayed over the graphics. Please don't tell me it was one of two in existence and worth $1000. I have an aversion to Pine Sol
'cause in the Army they used it clean everything and odor is overwhelming.
PM me your address, and which ONE you want.
Best regards, Chops
