Looks great, why didn't you paint the roof and quarters while you were at it?

And I wanted to get Epoxy on the rest of it and if I was doing epoxy I might as well shoot the parts I planned on not having to re sand while the epoxy was ripe for re coating so what ya see is what I did any way things are coming along worked a bit here and there but not too much lately its been too hot around here.

Dennis, really looks great. All those freshly plated parts really finish things off beautifully. I'm jealous of your progress. Are you still at the job you started a while back?
it needs to be lowered with big and littles. .

Thanks Doug
To me it just seams like the right way to do it except I am clear coating the parts so they stay nice looking for a bit longer.

45+ year old parts that look brand new. :wink: "Don't care who you are That's cool" !

Oh and no I'm no longer with those people
