looks pretty fine to me, nice job!
Looks really good!
I think your giant 408 dwarfs it though
thanks ,might have been the angle that I took the pix,,,,its a 217 so goes with the 408 ,love that crackle black ,wish I could have produced the same effect on the caboose,crack in a can,,,,hummmm
wow,thanks will have go get a can and see how it works on another piece ,,,337 crackle ?
Mopar used that wrinkle finish on some air cleaners in the musclecar era. I've never seen a Lionel face to face with the crackle finish, so I can't say how the paint will compare.
Terry,
I can see um' just fine now . Turned out pretty darn good .
For giggles & grins I deleted my earlier post .
