Chris....Don't hold your breath waiting for the ten cent AF car body.  I doubt 
it will ever arrive.  I speak as an "S elder" who spent his misguided youth 
searching for old AF heavyweight cars and spliced them to obtain a longer 
length.  I looked high and low for cheap cars without trucks, couplers, only 
one good end, scratches, dings, chips, cracks, etc.  A good deal for me was 
something like $15 per car, but most were triple that.  And that was back in 
the days when a buck was really a buck.  Eventually, all the loose AF 
heavyweights seemed to simply disappear long before AM got around to making a 
new bunch heavyweight cars.  Now we can splice AM cars which are even more 
expensive.  Some call that progress.  Cheers...Ed L.
