I would have never thought to do that, that's so awesome that you did. I really like the border you did, and the colors are a great choice in that setting. I'm actually inspired to make some for our car later this month when work calms down.

I got a LOT of great advice from them as I worked through this clean up. I won't call it a restoration because I really didn't restore anything. I just cleaned her up and replaced a few simple parts. It was a pretty good little 3 day project. But patience was recommended and well used! I am thrilled that she works and works well.<br /><br />I'll worry about making her more pretty next summer when I can paint, etc. outside! The light kerosene bath I gave her in the basement nearly got me kicked out of the house! BUT, it worked great to break up the nasty gunk on her silver parts.<br /><br />Thanks for reading!Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13624140507953560723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315466058316499276.post-23974404469109001282014-12-23T10:12:27.950-05:002014-12-23T10:12:27.950-05:00LOVE the Featherweight story!

It was a "Purchase on a whim". I paid $100 for her. She was nearly completely seized up. I figured, if I couldn't get her up and running again, I could sell her parts and get my $100 back.<br /><br />Last week I spent $42 for some new parts and now she's running again.<br /><br />In a few years I will probably spend the money to have her completely disassembled, re-painted and rebuilt, but for now, she works, so I'll use her.<br />Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13624140507953560723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-315466058316499276.post-38428247807460902492014-12-23T09:23:53.637-05:002014-12-23T09:23:53.637-05:00Welcome to the Grand Illusion group!
