I bought mine (my avatar) from someone in Fort Worth. I think he sends them to someone else to get refurbished. If you are interested, PM me and I will send you his name and number.

I love the idea of color shifted paint! There are some people who will shudder at the idea of painting a featherweight. The purists believe that they should be kept in their original condition to preserve their value.

I'm thinking that I'd love to give mine a new look that would make it even more special to me. I'd love to see some pictures too!
