Comet fancy front

Postby damikeguy » Fri Dec 09, 2016 12:12 pm

Does someone have a picture of the top of the top casting of a comet fancy front? If so can you please post it. I'm refinishing one now. All the pictures I have just showed the front. Thanks.

Thanks Stephane,
Nice machine. I'm still undecided on how to paint it. You're pictures will help.

You are right , it s hard to find any info about the Fancy, and more hard to find an original unrestored !
I have this if that can help you !

Stephane,
Thanks again for the help. I have pictures of other machines that are "ORIGINAL". No two are the same. I will just use my best judgement and your picture does help.

damikeguy:
The Fancy-Front pics shown above, is an example of the more common original paint colors.
You can do no wrong in choosing this color scheme. Good luck.
