Bob,
 
Anything can be adapted to "S".  Scale guys had to ( adapt HO Couplers at 
first) to have scale looking couplers. WE all adapt other HO  to "S". It's not 
as hard s you think it is. Try using your wife's hair blower as a heat source. 
Works great. Works for me even though I am mostly Highrail for now. 
Imangination is all it takes to model something. My thoughts.
                   Thanks,
                                Alan

I've been fascinated by the thread on hard used gons and it's amazing what you 
can do with a little distressing and weathering. Nice job Dave!  I ran across 
this article some time ago and though it's not S scale, the technique is still 
applicable.  A lot of trouble to go through, but the results are amazing:
