American Flyer (1) set of steps for repair of AF Hopper cars with broken steps.  These are Custom made from steel (come preformed) and will provide a repair method for 632 & 640 type hopper cars. Being steel these will offer a way to repair the cars with missing or broken steps that will withstand more abuse while adding more detail.  Offered by Ficus Products Tm

To easily find our special items .   Type in  "Ficus Products tm"

Two steel spacers are included that go between the trucks and car body to provide better stability and help prevent the wheels from rubbing the hopper bins ( for cars that use the screw attachment ). As seen in the 2nd picture. NOT required ON other cars.

The Epoxy noted can be obtained from auto parts stores.   Allowing the epoxy to extrude thru the center hole creates a pin and makes a very tight bond with the car bodies.

One product I have used is the Permatex Plastic Welder- it works very well.

The last picture is one of the first such cars to be repaired. The steps are roughly the same size as the original molded steps but are made a little larger to add more detail for enhancing the appearance. 

They will come painted with a gray primer.  NOTE:  The mounting surface is not painted for better bonding. 
Note:  They MAY have a Black oxide coating.  "Depending on availability"

If you have a sharp eye you may notice the Hopper in one picture has a Westinghouse air brake control in between the hopper bays.  [available upon request].

Shipped Via USPS first class the same day or the next business day after receipt of payment.

 Save postage by the purchase of two sets  (come in the same package)
