Bud,
The REA reefer was built from a Ye Old Huff and Puff kit.? I upgraded the kit with some styrene parts, Archer Fine Transfer rivets, etc.? You can see some of the upgrades in the build photo attached.? I wrote an article about the build with the theme of upgrading older wooden model kits with better details that appeared in the November 2015 NMRA Magazine.?? ?
