I bought this old reel car for a few bucks about 30 years ago at my LhS it was missing the wire and hold downs I wound green craft wire around the spools and used chain to make hold downs.Looks better now. !

Looks good all right! Which reminds me I've really, really got to get off my butt and start working on those Civil War cannon cars I've been planning for ages. Bang Head
