I seem to have less gray matter RAM allocated to freight car info these days, but wasn't the Kurtz-Kraft PS-1 kit a 10'-0" height car? If not, it would be easy to cut down, with its flat molded construction. The major parts were not bad, and using current SOTA ladders, grabs, brake gear and other accessories, building one of these kits might be an enjoyable project. I dimly recall that another manufacturer re-released the KK kits maybe 20 years ago, but apparently that file is corrupted.
It might be easier to cut up two Intermountain cars, given that the detail on them is superior to the Kurtz Kraft cars. cannonball car Shops was the company that re-released them.
