Thanks guys. It will be real close to the Nappy machine... 
It's all done I think minus the hood, rear pan + seat. Didn't spend much time on it today, parts were all painted last night. The hood + rear pan are waiting on the pressure pot blaster nozzle, it shipped today. The rear pan is off of a 400 series and a suction blaster just won't do it very fast. They put some kind of super paint on the 3-500 series and that's why we even added the pressure pot to the unit in the first place.
I am also officially blind from painting the dash lettering...

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
I can't see the forest for the trees.

Of course I get dinner.
That one has been sold for almost 6 weeks GT, we're just not moving fast enough.
The marker is a chiseled tip paint marker from Wal-Mart, in the craft section Bob. It's a DecoColor Premium, Silver, Oil based paint marker, made in Japan. It covers good and the tip is wider than the lines so they can be done in 1 pass.
