She's absolutely pure poetry in motion and at rest!!! The aeronautical designers during the late 30's and early 40's got it right, absolutely right!!

Over spray and underspray....
Also, it seems that some areas are not as well covered as others.

Back in the day, there was a guy named Darrel Starberg that ran a car show all over the southwest and for two years, four of my paint jobs were on tour with him. Maybe I just see way too far into the details....


I have the originals since I took the picture, and I also inspected the airplane up close while taking the pictures. I don't see the overspray/underspray around the data plate that you are talking about.

It's not a bad paint job, but it's not a 10 either.
