New guy with a PT-6 to Restore
#6

That's what I figured and tried to explain to the wifey thing....Ill "quietly" order the decals and she will never know!!

After work ill be doing the GoJo clean to it and see whats really there. The weather is not cooperating for me to do any work on either radio ive got..Will be stuck doing chasis and ordering needed caps and such.

Looking closer at it last night I found a pretty good crack in the side, will post a pic after work. Will need definite opinions on how to fix it---either glue and clamp or fill and fake it!!
