Chorehorse restoration project

[Jordan Baker]

Here is how the parts came out of the degreaser after spending close to 24hrs in it. I gave them a rinse off with clean water then air dry in the sun. Give them a quick coat of grey primer then the final brown. I also had time to remove the coil plate. I ended up scraping off the 50’s paint with a razor blade down to the metal. I didn’t want to soak the assembly and wreck something. Interestingly when I was removing the 50’s green the original colour was KG#3. So when I repainted I went with that.
