Hiawatha is going to be an issue. Not one of the more popular collectible brands.

I did the following '56 7.5 by matching the inner cowl to a very close Rustoleum. Or, have a local auto paint shop color match it. The inside of the cowl should not have been faded too bad.

Seeing old rusty junk come alive like a rising Phoenix is a satisfying feeling.

The problem is too many toys and not enough time.

Fortunately, I have 2 old classic boats that provide a platform to run engines. That way, they can all be rotated. In the interim, after using up all the old classic stands, the wall provides for added storage.
