Re: Saving the original paintwork and trunk emblem - 1951 200 barn findand

So instead of trying to revive the tired original engine I bought another 288 for less than I would have paid for new pistons and rings. Pre-purchase of the new to me engine I was allowed to remove the head the cylinders are beautiful, original pistons (std stamp), and water jacket is very clean

It does have some leak down from the exhaust so I set out to learn how to resurface the seats. I practiced on the tired engine today, unfortunately due to covid-19 we've been ordered to stay at home for all nonessential's so I had to come up with some alternatives for Prussian blue pencil which I can't seem to find - here are my results.
