Dug out the heater and tested and painted the core. This one was painted a hammered green color, which seemed a bit rare. I have tried matching the color, but without much success, so will eventually paint the housing with the usual Rustoleum Hammered Bronze color that’s a pretty close match to the more common bronze colored heaters. Also arranged for a sandblaster to come to the house and sandblast the cab. He set up a tent and went after it, spending nearly all day. I also managed to track down a nice used air compressor, a 60 gallon vertical 5 HP unit
