I’ve got one, I gently media blasted past the surface rust, and exposed most of the original plating underneath. I now am waiting on parts to do a military coil swap!

Thanks for the advice!

So far, for my restorations, I have been removing paint the old fashioned way–with sandpaper and elbow grease.  I’d love to get a media blaster someday, but they take up a lot of room and a decent compressor costs a ton of money, that I don’t have.

Please keep me posted on your project!  I’d love to see some pictures!  Also, I might need to ask you some questions about the military coil swap.  I have a coil, and I’ve watched Tubs’ video, but I still have some questions before I dive into that side of this project.

 

Thanks again!
