Well three of the four flat cars have been started so far. here are some pics to show what a sloppy job I did with the gorilla wood glue 
but the mess is not in areas typically viewed. My glue of choice is Walthers Goo for wood and attaching dissimilar materials together also use Faller expert glue for plastic kits. I am experimenting with Gorilla wood glue which seems to set fast but can be a mess if not real careful with the dispensing.
I did find a really bad shape Lionel truck as a stand in to see how the flat car will look on 3-rail trucks. Huff n Puff sells some trucks and couplers as a separate items from kits but I will more than likely check the 3 main hobby stores in town that occasionally have boxes of basket case rolling stock cheap that parts can be scavenged from
