Re: Fake TRC or rare specimen?
We've seen this before once. Ken S had an '84 or '85 4003S JG a few years back that had "Made in the USA" written upside down. I think it was just a goofy batch of legit RIC TRC's.
And Ken's TRC was black as well, so the goofy batch was probably much smaller than a batch of white TRC's.

You think you've seen it all with Rics, and then another surprise comes along...

That and the model number was stamped on after they were made. Mistakes happen.

That's a good deal on a black TRC. Don't see too many of these on eBay. I've seen white ones selling for more.
