This is less of a bash and more a rescue/upgrade.
A couple years back I found a pair of old wood gons with the girder underframes in need of serious help, and fell for them on the spot. Just a few months ago at the big train show in Puyallup I found a third car, almost certainly from the same builder! These cars came from the same vendor who always has a good supply of estate sale cars (from whence I found my Gibraltar hopper, built by Milt Moore).
I have been to HO Seeker's database and identified them as Silver Streak cars. I've got to get to work now, but later today I'll take a few pictures and post them.

I may not be a rivet counter, but I sure do like rivets!
