Title: Re: Royal Crown Kelvinator 180 Post by: coke_and_stuff on July 02, 2010, 07:50:10 am Yes he is the only difference is originally the NEHI had red in it. It was bleached out and liked only the dark blue better. Otherwise the way you see it is the way it was new.

Title: Re: Royal Crown Kelvinator 180 Post by: coke_and_stuff on July 02, 2010, 05:07:37 pm 6-8 weeks is what they usually take unless something goes wrong, Chest is painted im in the process of reassembly right now.
