I really had no use for this old time Christmas Car. So after a wash in Scalecoat II paint remover, I painted it gray and had some Microscale MoW decals and this is the result. The gray has a 50/50% mix of Testor's Dullcoat/Glosscoat on it.
Now a vintage MoW Boxcar- Tool Car.....





Turns into this.....

That looks incredible.Not to mention more prototypical.

"A lot of modellers out there who go to these train shows see broken HO stuff and go, 'This is useless' when, in reality, they can still be used for modeling whether it's as a prop on your layout or a cool project to make something old new again."
