Agree about this family of chassis NOT being easy to work on. But many are nice looking and playing sets. My R7A is a super player. But restoring the chassis caused me to utter Milton-esque length sentences of invective. No, make that War and Peace length invective. Fort Bragg called me and said that I was embarrasing the paratroopers. Yep. Honest...

And people think 25 years in the Marines doesn't give you marketable skills......
