Thanks Brian.

Per BB 7 the XM-32F's were the first Burlington cars painted Chinese Red, so these are certainly very historical in value. Also of interest is that according to BB 7, panel doors (Superior 5-panel as seen on BN 951828) were applied to cars 62500-62999. This brings up an interesting question since neither of the cars you have are in that series, but clearly one has a 5-panel Superior door! It certainly could be a that the original Youngstown doors on one of your cars were replaced with Superior 5-panels. Or might the original run of XM-32F's with panel doors may have started at a lower number, maybe 62400 or 62450? Do you know which Q car number has the Superior 5-panel doors?
