With advice from some of you and postings on the site I'm nearly done with my first restoration, a La Crosse LC-90. Below are a few before and after photos. I was working on a very small budget so I couldnt send the machine off to a paint shop for blasting or painting; everything was done in my garage or back yard. The compressor was already working so I haven't pulled it out; again, not enough $ to send it to a professional for a true cleaning/restoration of it. Thanks for all your help!
