    Because that shell is NOT correct for the chassis! This is something cobbled together for reasons unknown. Not worth the asking.... :(

    That's a Kato mid production SD40-2 mechanism under what looks to be a flat radiator Kato SD70M shell possibly. Why? No clue.

    Yeah, but there are "No missing or broken wheels, couplers, steps or other detail parts." It also appears to have blue trucks and couplers. I've never seen that before, so definitely "ultra rare." I'm sure that hand written text on the car is also one of a kind.

    Agreed! Especially the "parked-in-a-downpour-of-acid-then-dipped-in-mud" weathering job we see there.

    E-Bay dictionary:
    "Custom" = did it myself
    "Vintage" = got it when I was a kid
    "Rare" = I don't often screw up a model this badly
    'LQQK" = RUN and don't look back!

    That guy actually does pretty nice work. Have a look at his other auctions. He also posts frequently on Reddit.
