You seem to have a nice bit of elbow room in your wok area.

Nice work.

I'm sure it will be quite a looker when it's finished. Judging by the stripes it must've been pretty sharp back in the day.

I too like the color scheme on the braun cab.

You may keep this kind of strip work on my mind.

The Mack Museum has the paint numbers- if I remember correctly there is a Krylon rattle can gold that comes very close to the gold used on the engines.
