I acquired this piece at an estate sale along with other Hot Wheels and Matchbox items. It comes to you sealed on the blister backing and is considered NEW IN BOX. Please check out the above photographs....It is a great item for any collection as a starter or a filler. Please view all pictures provided above for actual condition and ask me any questions you may have..  Pictures are of exact item in auction, it has been kept in an adult collection, has not been played but rather displayed. The home was smoke free. This item is being sold "AS IS".
