She turned out beautiful. Hard to imagine it's the same machine! (It was up to ZERO, here this afternoon.) : )

Great work. I'd had tears to part with that. My 29K58 looked much like your 29- when I acquired it. Slowly it is looking much better. I was amazed at how much grim can accumulate and how much original is under there. However, the decals have taken a beating. I will re-decal when time comes. Did you paint, polish, stove-black or what to get such a nice clean, black machine?
That is the original japan finish-lot's of gentle elbow grease using mineral spirits and some DNA. I decided not to re-decal the old girl. I dissembled the stand, sandblasted and top coated it with Krylon DTM(direct-to-metal)semi-gloss spray paint. I like the way the base turned out. Rodney in the still frozen deep South!! |
Beautiful machine! Were visitation rights part of the deal?

Wow, what a fantastic job you did on refurbishing that gorgeous machine. Must have been hard to part with.

Beautiful, had to be hard to let it go!

I reserved first right of refusal and it's less than a mile from my house so I can check on the old girl's health and well being. I think post partum is setting in-will possibly seek counseling as required. Rodney |
