In years past during our annual "beach week" at Rehoboth, DE while the wife and kids would walk to the ocean and bake in the sun, I along with two other O gauge friends would tackle small kit building projects in the shade of a porch. Below are photos of 3 kitbashed Intermountain cars. The war emergency GN plywood side and NP double sheathed cars use Lee Turner resin sides. The CG door and a half car was creaded by splicing two cut down doors to make the half door. Low cost and great fun to build while drinking beer with friends.
I need to brush the dust off those roofs!
