So, I had two Precision models of a brass double door car that was based on a MKT prototype. Unfortunately, they put on the wrong brakes for the car. Here they are behind the resin car and a brass model of the GN wood sided 1937 AAR car.
So, first I had to secure the doors and fix any minor defects.
Then I had to take off the power brake system and build a manual brake system and add other details
I had to repair some steps and door supports
Closer view of the new brake system with cut lever and air hose added.
A new brake platform and brake staff support.
A bottom bracket for the brake staff also.
The airline was also replaced and moved.
The cut lever was run behind the brake staff support.
Given I model 1956, the cars had to have two hand grabs on the left of the car side. So, I added a Precision cast grab. Next is the paint booth.
