Duncan-

I think I know the type of car you are talking about..... IIRC they are steel 
sheathed wood cars.
Some of the Pullman steel sheathed cars had the rib above the letterboard as 
well.   If you have a car number the exact heritage of the car would be easy to 
trace using Glick's books or Joe Douda's source material

I'm not sure there is a really good starting point for the cars.   I would look 
at the AHM Pullman or some of the IHC Pullmans to use as a "core" kit.   Maybe 
you'l luck out and the window spacing from one of them will work out.   The IHC 
cars are all over the map as to height of letterboard, windows, and girder 
panels (even though all the Pullmans should be identical) so one might work 
out.   Thinking about it, the Athearn Coach and Baggage cars might be a 
starting point as well... they had a pretty deep letterboard.

It is going to be an extensive kitbash as the car type I'm thinking about was a 
coach that had a baggage door cut into the side, so was itself a kitbash.
