39 survivor car 15 grand

We all know Ross's advice is gold but this time literally. I redid the scripts on my car. The steps are:
- clean with a wire wheel
- clean what you missed, with steel wool (doesn't have to be perfect but just get the rough corrosion off)
- clean with brake cleaner and a rag
- apply Duplicolor Gold automotive rattle can paint. Sweep the can back and forth to apply several very light passes in one go. Repeat from all 4 directions.

It's not a concours level look but it's very nice overall and the paint is surprisingly durable. Best part is a whole car costs just a $13 can. Whereas replated scripts from vendors are nearly a cool $100 each. The replated ones do have a mirror shine but unless your local car cruise has a pile of Packards it's not like anyone will be able to tell or care. (Photo attached for reference.)

Yeah I figured. IDK if it would be worth it but it might improve the quality of the entries a bit if people can go back and edit for errors or omissions.

Thanks. Will heed that advice.

I assume it is correct to use a copper washer between the brake hose and wheel cylinder?

Typical for 1940 vehicles. What is the VIN?

Would it be possible to make it where people can edit or delete their own entries? At least for say 7 days like forum posts?
