restoman Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 I Dug thisย out of the collection of builts that never got put into a display cabinet, intending to clean the dust off and put it on a shelf. Built some 25+ years ago, I felt it deserved a little more love than the silver-painted trim allowed for. Foiled it, polished ofย a dust nib or two, swapped in some whitewalls, and gave it a good scrubbing. Comments always welcome. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rrb124@sbcglobal.net Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Love the 421 powered 65 2+2. I built it years ago in the color Mayfair Maize light yellow but forgot to do the chrome trim like you completed. I better dig it out and get busy. Thanks for showing your machine.
