big loader store display. UPDATED BIG BIG LOADER

thanks, plarnold and super.

i won it tonight [boy i love technology! must get one of those fancy data phones. we were on the road and i was bidding from a gas station!!!] for the start of $80, which is great. the seller is delighted its going into an adults collection. they have had it since the mid 80s, so its about my age which is neat.
the seller is going to do her best to pack it safely. so excited to have this bit of history.

super, my club has our big show in a couple weeks, and i plan to display this piece, running, all weekend. i wont run the same chassis all the time. will take spares just in case. it will not be within reach of any kids. they can keep their grubby hands to themselves. lololololol.

plarnold, that photo doesnt show it well but its a moulded base to hold the tracks in place properly. this pic is a bit clearer without the bubble
