Yeah, unbelievably nice work!!! The cooling fan looks like the turbine off a jet engine. Great job, thanks for posting the pictures.

What kind of paint did you use? Did you completely strip the old finish off? It looks really good. How about the fuel tank cap? I seem to have trouble getting paint to stay put on them, even with clear added. That really is a cool machine.

I totally bead blasted it,etched it with acid & painted it. But it's going to be displayed on my daughter's fireplace. Even though it did run previously to restoration, I didn't run it afterwards. By the way, it was enamel.
