I got the front panel below the window in place, as well as prepped the window opening to install the Hehr window. As you can see, it has the original paint. When it is fully back together, I am going to to machine compound and polish it. I am hoping the patina look will present well. 4138B23F-5D1D-488E-B80F-ED3B8918C4A9 by Bryan Port, on Flickr

Bryan, Is the roof galvanized metal or aluminum? My BeeLine had galvanized on it in the center section.

Also, in Alaska, when something is parked under the cottonwood trees, it deposits a black residue over time. This will come off with scrubbing.

Are you going to be painting it or leaving it white?

I am going to polish up the original white and see how it looks. However, if it looks too shoddy, I will paint it white and yellow at the end of camping season.
