That looks like the Proto gondola. When Proto came out with their r-t-r cars, the kit versions languished on hobbyshop shelves until the owners put them on sale.
I never used the detail parts of the Proto kits (grabirons and sill steps), and got 10 or so kits for a couple of bucks each. I also stocked up on their tank car kits, too, at similar prices. My Proto gondolas mostly ended-up as home road cars, with 1938 BLT. dates...
....perhaps a little bit early, but that's one of the luxuries of freelancing.
