If you did not pick this unit up in 2007 when it was released, you are probably kicking yourself.
CONDITION: Set is C-7 overall--excellent plus. These units look great. We cleaned the wheels and rollers, lubed, replaced missing traction tires, checked the speaker, tested all functions. Working well.
To get super picky:
203A: C-6+ (some would say C-7) due to a few rubs and scratches on roof as well as a few small droplets in the finish.
B Unit: C-7+ small rubs on roof;
203C non-powered A: C-7 a few small rubs, one very small paint chip on roof (hard to see). No boxes.
