StevenGuthmiller Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 You used brush paint on them Robbie? Nothing wrong with that, but it reminds me of my dad telling me about the first car he ever owned. He bought a 1951 chevy from a friend for next to nothing. I believe he said it was green but the paint was very rough & faded. So he got out a can of yellow house paint & gave her a fresh coat. Only paint job he could afford.
