Re: IML: Booster Dewey

[Ken Miller <kdmiller44@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

When I have Booster Dewey rebuild my boosters, I ask him to not paint 
them.  He is happy to accommodate my request.

The same goes when I have a radiator rebuilt.  Radiator shops (and most 
restorers) insist on painting them gloss black which, of course, they 
never were.
