Thanks for the comments. I tried a couple of things different on this one. Instead of covering the whole thing with wood stain and wiping it off like past projects I only used a little here and there but mostly on the bottom. I mixed black white and brown paint to make it a grayish color then thinned it and dabbed and wiped similar to using the wood stain. Another thing I did was to put the original ad glass and new door glass in before painting it so I could get paint on the rubber and a little on the glass like what happened when they were painted back in the day. I was going to paint over the emblem too but could not get myself to because they look better unpainted.


I dabbed some of the watered down gray paint I made on them.
