Matt,
Those machines look great! Who does your paint? When is that auction going down in Linton? I'll probably miss it seeing as how I'm currently in Hawaii untill the 28th of this month for work (NSWC Crane). Knowing my luck, it'll be this coming weekend. Yeah, when I get back, I'll look you up and give you a call. I am looking for the evaporator fan plenum cover that is located inside the cooler for my 51. Mine has some pretty advanced rust and will need to be replaced.
Johnie,
I got the evap motor for my 51 and it looks awesome and works flawlessly! Thanks a ton John! Nope, I didn't end up getting the core back. I'm sure I could if just asked.

Thanks Everyone. The inside liner was painted with Hammerite silver shot through a paint gun. I paint my machines by myself, hand paint all the letters, wording, pin strippping aswell. Yes look me up when you get back, i will be a crane monday.
