The Grandt Line parts are a big improvement, Bernhard. 
I thought that Atlas did a fairly nice job on those cars, but ruined them with the working doors. I didn't buy any when they were first released, mostly because of the toy-like door hardware (although they were also kinda pricey 
). I thought that not too many folks would buy them because of the hardware, and then they would go on sale and I could grab a couple of them at a reduced price. 
That never happened, though, and I don't ever recall seeing even an occasional one on the "used" market - I guess Atlas must've known what they were doing.
