Congrats JW!
Good to finally see this historical Rickenbacker in safe hands and what lies ahead.
Nice to see a thread with real substance and significance. Takes me back to the old days...

Ok, a couple more pics later today. Color is on, clearcoats too. Just waiting for it to cure. As they say, "the waiting is the hardest part...".
