Thanks all, I will defiantly post pics during and after the restoration....
PM this guy, he seems to make good color choices. I never thought about painting "happy trees" on it.:)
Sled!!
Unless I change my mind before I walk in the both, I am going with a burnt orange on the bottom and an off white or light tan top..
Easy killer, I just asked a question to get feedback. As I'm sure you read, I already know what color I am going to paint it. I didn't mean to get...
I also like the current color. The problem is that it needs some attention to some areas. So if I'm going to re-shoot it I would like to change it up.

Thank you. Very well said. I hang around guys all the time that are building their rides and we always kick ideas back and forth. I respect the...

Thank you, I am the proud owner of a Fleetmaster....

I need to edit a post in the classified section that I posted. I have looked around in my account and can not find a way to do so. Please help
