I saw this for sale today on Facebook. I was wondering if it is a factory finish or aftermarket. I have no interest in it, so you are welcome to get it if you like. The price is certainly right.

It's not factory, but it's interesting and not badly done. Quite possibly period; done by a professional.

Aftermarket. My guess (yes, guess) is that it was done during the collector era.

Unfortunately, Flat Lick, Ky is not on the way to anywhere... in the middle of nowhere...
