Steve, my GG1 is the complete opposite. The body is immaculate. 3 of the 4 trucks side were broken off when it arrived. I have since JB welded as best I could and reassembled. The sideframes are a lot worse than the trucks so I may pickup some lionel side frames and fit them. I have a feeling I can get some years out of it and the seller offered to return or a substantial refund, so I kept it. I really do love the engine but probably won't be handing this one down to the kids in 30 years!
