Anybody interested in a new challenge?

Being on a very limited hobby budget for awhile, I've been spending some time fixing up old "junker" cars. In fact, I found an old box of junked train-set cars from my youth. Ralph's caboose thread and Foulrift's upgraded cars inspired me to look through the box and see what I can fix up and use. I propose a "fix up an old train-show junker" contest. Rules could be to take a used freight car (no unbuilt kits or new cars) and upgrade or detail the car. This could be anything from a simple weathering job to a complete kitbash into something else. Anyone interested?
