Next week is a week off, so I'm going to clean the base, at the moment it's 75% rust, if there's no improvement once cleaned, it's a respray, but if the logo is in good nick, I'll keep it original

You know my take on that subject MTA! I like to see something that old nice and original

The decal on my M135 is good, the base isn't. Easy decision for me

I didnt tackle it that week, as I was feeling a bit under the weather. Tomorrow will be a whole day devoted to it, since my table is now clean
