After St.Patrick kicked the snakes out of Ireland around 450 AD, the Irish created BEER. Quite the innovation for the time, considering the oppressive society England forced upon the Irish. This would also lead to some other great Irish creations, such as: the pub, parades, 7 to 10 children households, the wooden ruler, hangovers, union break, adultery, divorce lawyers, paid vacations, mashed potatoes, sunglasses, Democratic Party, U2, football(no nation is complete without beer and football), and so much more. Produced by Lionel in 1972-75, and part of there billboard reefer series(the first year). The "King Of Beers", Budweiser got the first nod. These alcohol Billboard reefer's have become extremely hot in the market place, and probably the best looking series MPC produced. Lionel will most likely never produce alcohol cars again. Features; plastic molded reefer body with detailed under-carriage, opening doors, plastic trucks with operating couplers, and authentic Budweiser paint scheme and graphics(multicolor electrocal Anheuser Busch A Eagle logo decal). Uncataloged in 1972, and cataloged 1973-75. These cars have become some of the most collectible cars from the MPC era of Lionel(they'll never make beer cars again). Came with or without period after BEER CAR stamp(with period being rarer). MPC window box with Bonus Coupon. Very tough car to find with unfaded white plastic body, and coupon is usually cut from the box. Beer is green inside.
