Although labeled as coaches 70-73 (Overland produced the same cars in Sn3 and On3), the car is only accurate for the coach #70. It was the only coach of the 70-76 series that had horizontal eave fascia on the clerestory roof, over the end platforms. All the others had eave fascia that were down-turning.

Yep, you're right (as usual). So that wouldn't have helped me at all, as I have two of the Soho #70s, and have already decided that a bending brake isn't the right tool for turning the roof edges down.  
Looks like surgery and a 3D printed roof is in the future for at least one of them.
FWIW, the listing now shows as sold, so the seller either got the listing price or an acceptable best offer.
