Original price says 3.50! Parts to service 2 Trucks. Included in the tune up kit were:

4 Pick-up shoes
4 pairs of pick-up screws
4 Nuts
4 Plates
4 Guide Pins (metal)
4 Rear Tires

Text from back of product card:
PERFORMANCE TIPS

1. Before each use clean track with a lint-free cloth, (Dirty track causes poor vehicle performance.) Caution! Never use steel wool for cleaning purposes. Small bits of steel wool will be attracted to the motor and ruin it.

2. Clean track conductor rails by rubbing with an ink eraser or a coin.

3. Polish contact surface of the pick-up shoes with a pencil eraser.

4. Wipe the surface of the rear drive tires with a lint-free cloth or a piece of tape to remove dirt.

Hi there, I just bought 3 tune-up kits on eBay France. They’re the version that was sold in France. The card isn’t as nice looking as the US version, but the contents are a bit more generous, as each kit includes 8 guide pins. Interesting.

« SAV » means Service Apres Vente = after-sales service.
