Nice 158 I bought and refurbished it, cleaned, re-wired, remove dents, strip and repainted shell. Added new decals, serviced tested and see video of it running. Everything was polished and cleaned. It was totally refurbished and restored the shell and frame, dummy lights Lot of work but runs and looks great now. Color is Lionel Gray paint. If my price seems high I want you to know that I usually put 6-10+ hours of labor restoring it to the condition it is at now. Plus I usually put Fifty to one Hundred ++ dollars in refurbished or new parts. They are almost impossible to find anymore. And are not cheap. Sometimes less sometimes more. If you want one cheaper you may have to repair it and its costly. Even the new parts do not fit and have to be modified. SEE VIDEO OF IT RUNNING. Thank you for looking You will get the engine you see! If more I will pay. Going to the West coast always cost more.

The one side of the tunnel is slightly tweaked (doesn’t sit completely flat). Tunnel shows some minor wear, staining and paint loss. Tunnel would benefit from a cleaning. Box is in pretty rough shape. Shows staining, wear, missing flap, and some writing. Still a rare box to have. Feel free to ask any questions.
