    Those guys who say I’ll restore it someday and never do. We’ve dragged our feet since 89. It’s time to move on.

    Several good ideas. I will most likely start with sanding to get the majority then go the Pho acid as a prep for primer. It’ll be a slow process in my off time. Also I was asked my location. I’m just south of McGuire AFB/Ft. Dix. Almost smack dab in the center of the state. An hour east of...
