Please Expand on This Statement in Italics...

 "In 1970, MPC used the old Post War Molds and they came with blank end plates on the cars.  They had 2 metal door guides and the modified 1950 plastic Timken Trucks. (Modified means that the coupler and shank were made out of plastic).  The coupler armature had a square piece of metal in it (many have rust on them).  The wheels were thick with 4 raised round items that looked like mold push outs on the inside and they were given a fast angle."

 "It is now been proven that fast angle wheels did not do a great deal in the operation of the car and today, the wheels are flat with no angle. "
