• This is a Doll 364 I believe that I picked up off of Ebay. Wasn't very pretty at the time but it had potential.
   This had been posted on another forum that I used to be on and just thought I'd revive one of my better turn outs.

• Steady lines on the pinstripping.  Hard to do.

• A great transformation. The old girl looks ready for another 70-80 years. Excellent job.

   Yes I have Charlie, about two years ago was the last time. The first time I fired it up after the cleanup and paint job, the 25-30%
  of the reddish paint on the bottom of stack turned black. Nothing else went bad.

• Well done with the pinstriping. I have a Doll 504 roller which will need pinstriping some day (previous owners repainted it many moons ago:) I have been putting it off until I am confident of achieving a near factory look.
