This tooling for the 54-foot ACF Center Flow Hopper originates with Kader in Taiwan for the AHM line. AHM first catalogs this offering in 1969. The car also surfaces in the early 1970s in the Life-Like line and the Bachmann line.

Origin marks found on the underframe of an Old Dutch Cleasner example show the AHM name presented boxed, plus Made in Taiwan. This car strongly favors the tooling and in some cases even the paint schemes of the Bachmann model.
