I recently finished a Eco 97 for a friend of mine. I was originally going to paint it Polly Gas colors but he wanted Sunoco. I sand blasted all of the parts and primered them with Omni Epoxy primer and then used Omni hi build primer sanded and shot base coat / clear. Wet sanded and buffed. I also rebuilt the guts with new orings and cleaned everything. I purchased all my parts from Ron Scobie and added the cast iron base so it would not tip. I also added water to it. Enjoy

Looks great in the Sunoco clours, Where did you get the base from?
