Well Nancy,

Not so much as you'd think, but I'm sure they helped. Notice the doorways cut into the side of the car. They compromised the truss just as sure as many dozens of combine conversions did back in the day. The truss cannot do its job without an intact companion compression truss in the side of the car.
