Mark,

I will only wind up keeping one sled (Unless I get a WWI and a post WWI).

So far I sold one, and have two of which one is a junker.

This deal is mainly for the legal Fullauto MG08 as that is the major part of the price. The two sleds would come with it and would probably go up for sale to help pay the cost of the gun. Of course I am still far from making this deal.

I wish I could keep it all but I don't have that kind of money!

Do you have the "Constituent Color" codes? I would not mind mixing it myself it thats how they did it back then.

Otherwise I will check with GWM.

I don't think I can afford enough spray paint! Also they brushed these sleds right? They did not spray stuff back then did they?

if you have a sherwin williams near by, they have an exact match for the dunklegrua

I've posted a picture of the paint I've got from them in my link
