So I focused on the C37 cab today, and I will finish it before working on another. I expect 3-4 days tops. Last night, I did all the spotting over it. That went very well.

Tonight was putting on some yellow on the left side and front of the cab and backbox. That went well as well. I also recreated something on top of the backbox that often gets forgotten on cab repaints...  

Enjoy...

Belay that order, I was thinking about "borrowing" the stencils, but I can also make my own, there was enough pattern left on the other one .... IF I acquire it again....IF (I need another EM like I need the proverbial hole in my head).

Project nearing completion... cab is now finished. I just have a couple of touch-ups to do on it, and then done. The playfield is mostly done, just working out small details before clearing.

Cabs when new were painted for the most part white, not antique white. But I usually go with the wishes of the owner. In this case, Dan said make it nice and clean. Ultra-white it is...

Oh man... no kidding. Especially this one... it was faded bad. But oddly enough, I find the GTB cabs the best built... their Achilles' heel was their paint fading.

I am trying to understand the theme here, so what is with the art depicting cooking up women in an oversized test tube? Is this the very last Gottlieb EM?
