Welcome to the forum Joe. You would probably have to dig up a few jars in the backyard to get this one. With the recent price increase and the long wait this one will go high IMO.

I remember that one :-) That batch had some great wood, and yours truly got to put the color on 'em..'Twas a good week indeed.

You know what i love best about BBRs than any other colour. The back of the necks they are a beautiful sight to behold.

Another forum member recently (in the last few months) bought a BBR 381/6 new. It's a gorgeous finish. :D

I think it has one of the nicest BBR finishes I've seen. I've only seen a handful with flame to the body. I remember seeing a 660 @ Music Zoo that was incredible...

Hey Eric,

I got one of the 381/12V69 BBRs from that batch from Wildwood. Its a truly great finishing job. Its out by my desk just so I can look at it for inspiration!

Keep on spraying!
