I got this entire lot for $10 at the swap meet... I was prolly the only one who knew what they were. Five are shallow and one is deep.. the deep one is rusted through and will likely end up as a clock for the workshop.
After 24 hours in the electolysis vat to dissolve the rust. Works great. Here is how to do it if you're interested: http://www.rowand.net/Shop/Tools/Electrolysis.htm
Etched primed, primer-surfacer, wetsanded with 400, a coat of sealer, and shot with VHT cast aluminum:
Masked and shot with Rustoleum semi-gloss black engine enamel. The trick is to use 3M fine line tape on the convex and concave turns. Then mask with 3M blue tape and masking paper (not newspaper!).
After multiple maskings, shot with Ford engine red, Old Ford Blue engine paint, and appliance white enamel.
Hand painted the details with Testor silver enamel. Finished for now.... only four more to go before clearcoating them all.
