Maybe find a copy of this issue of MR? Nice looking car.

"The car is reviewed in the September, 1961 issue of Model Railroader in the Trade Topics column."

Northeastern Scale Models produced the line of kits sold originally under the Ambroid name. After Ambroid sold them, they were re-released under the Northeastern name. So if the kit is of the "Speedy" Poultry and Refrigerator Car, let me know and I can scan the instructions and send them. I have a partial scan below. If it comes up clear enough, on the bottom Lt of the car, it says,"Palace Live Poultry Car Co." and "Speedy" just above the doors.
