One source of stock to chop up which is often overlooked is the Hornby 4 wheel carriages.

 Sharing pretty much the same panel effect as the bigger clerestory carriages two to three shut together soon bring you up to the length were all looking for and the other major advantage is there very cheap. I've seen them at car boots and the junk boxes at shows for as little as 50p or a pound each so just a thought.

Heh I've got a good few of these in various states of (dis)assembly including one made up from parts bought at a spares stand. I just use them for livery experiments and in conjunction with a pug 0-4-0 to amuse my daughter. For more "serious" things I have a handful of part built Ratio 4 wheelers I got as a job lot for a tenner.
