Nice cars JWB! And your yellow is so much better than mine!
I'm often surprised how many cheap old cars can be turn in great looking layout model. When I get my hands on old stuff, I often make a quick search to find what prototype Tyco, Walthers, name it, used. Most of the time a talented guy, like Thompson, did the job and I just have to step in the band wagon. Have you ever worked on the Varney wood reefer? I read an old article recently about turning it into a Swift classic meat reefer.
