    Hi Folks:

    Ive an idea to try to scratchbuild some generic "coalporters" in n scale, they will NOT be rivet counter type models, but will get the job done for me. I'm doing this with some other kinds of cars as well, but the problem that I am running into is I cannot find dimensions for a full scale car that I can make my plans from (Ideally, it would have a line drawing as well) -- does anyone know where I Can find one? -- most of the rest of mine come from greenbriars site, but they dont make this kind of car

    Thanks

    You might try contacting a carbuilder and asking for a set of drawings. Not sure if they'd respond, but it's worth a try.
