Good information, Nate. Thanks for posting.
I picked up one of these at last week’s St. Louis meet. While i was at it, I talked with Ted Culotta who’s done the best decal version of the DeSoto (MoPac 30s to 1963) lettering style that I’ve ever seen. He’s got a 1958 cu ft ACF covered hopper plus the gondola, and seems interested in doing more.
