Very cool. 8) Maybe a custom painted A&W, Dad's or I.B.C. Root Beer shell to top it off. :idea: Or even a Dum Dums Root Beer flavored sucker shell.

Seriously?

Lol that would be funny

My dad ran brown and buckskin colors in the 80's so it may end up a tribute paint scheme

Very different! I do think an A&W root beer themed body would be fantastic.

I like it from the top, but you should have a batch of the screws done too. They really clash.

Yes....but what color? Bronze? I've been toying with it but I put in some black screws and it didn't look great either. The bronze will surely be a different shade. I'm having a tough time with the screw color

go with a silver color on the screws. probably most neutral and matches rest of metal parts.

:lol:

Stainless would work but not really era correct. Associated had non anodized flat head screws on something...10L for sure but that's later on as well. I may see if I can dig up some plain aluminum screws and see how they look. Maybe even a standard zinc coated steel screw should look ok and era correct. Hmm
