Kadee draft box?

[747flier]

I have some very nice HON3 cars I constructed over 30 years ago, apparently from injection molded plastic. However I never filed them with couplers and the have a draft box molded into the floor. However no covers seem to exist (go figure). Is anybody familiar with these and can a Kadee 714 coupler be fitted ini here if I can construct (3D print) a suitable cover?View attachment 162645

Sorry to have ended up with a double post, I still have an internet connection worthy of the last century!

I cannot answer whether the Kadee #714 will fit. But if Kadee covers will fit, PM me your address and how many you need.

Thank you SF Willie! I have some Kadee couplers and will see if any parts fit or some other setup is necessary. I was hoping someone might recognize this setup and perhaps what it was designed to be used with. My fear it was with non "operating" solid scale couplers.

Best regards!
