This car completes my wife’s late Grandfather’s set that he had owned since he was a boy, and passed down to me. The complete set is about exactly 100 years old this year.
I have been searching for years for this car, and am very very happy with the overall condition of the new addition.
It's nice to hear that your wife's late grandfather's set is being used and treasured by someone who appreciates it. This is not always possible when passing on treasured possessions.
