I just wanted to say hello to all my friends at the Wayne show and sorry I am missing it this year. I have" before and after" pictures of a Vic I, serial #6764B that i purchased last spring.
I use an amber shellac finish, rubbing with extra fine steel wool between the coats, Tremclad gloss black for the back bracket and Eduardo's decals from Peru, especially now that he has fancy decal for the Vic 1. Also I am fortunate to have a good nickel plating source close by.
Thanks for looking.

Re: Friends at the Wayne Show Vic I
Incredible restoration skills--and with the morning glory horn too! Some folks would love it to pieces.
But you apparently loved it back together which is a lot easier on these historical old machines. Now we know what a Vic I looked and sounded like when new!
