What to look for
HCJ88 is number 5/5 in the set. It has staggered Real Riders drag-dish wheels, with much larger rear tires than fronts. The darker HCK25 chase occupies 0/5, so the sandy body should not be cataloged simply as black.

This release and its companions
Choosing one for your collection
Compare the weathering with the reference photograph before calling every rough-looking patch damage. Then look separately for actual chips along the nose and bed rails.
Check that the small front tires and wide rear tires sit properly. A low side view makes the staggered setup easier to judge.
Collector questions
Is the rust on this release supposed to be there?
The rusty patches and wood-style bed are printed decoration. Actual scratches, chips or corrosion still need their own condition assessment.
