Thanks Pieter, but I really wasn't trying to duplicate the car so much but just the weathering. It appears the car is a taller version or might have different ends/extensions. I also didn't consider the reinforced area under the door area. I would like to find a decal indicating the car had been designated for hide loading. Just imagine the smell of a car load of hides in the summer heat on some siding in North Dakota waiting for a local to pick it up.
When I lived in Minneapolis, we had Bermann Buckskin as a client. I would assume most of that leather came from cattle that arrived at the South St. Paul stockyards perhaps just weeks before those leather coats were produced.
