I'll let you know how the Genesis Geep turned out... when I see them

Re: Rapido freight car at Cocoa Beach

Re: Rapido freight car at Cocoa Beach
It's a good choice for a prototype, but...
1. are you sure your photos show an HO model? maybe it's N scale?
2. tongue-in-grove wood sides don't have 1/2" gaps between boards
