    So the 2222 is in the dip so I can give it a new coat of blue with white trim and graphics

    As I've finally figured out what didn't look right with the yellow

    More to come when I can get a break from work lots of hours right now

    TTFN y'all

    So got a replacement dynamic brake housing to make it more in line with a standard GP38

    As the GP38's with the old oil bath filters had a tendency to catch on fire

    Why a lot of them received air filter box upgrades later in their careers

    So found the paint formula from a DT&I modeler

    So this GP38 will become an O.S. unit
