This is my first unit ever that I will be painting/detailing. The plan is to paint the unit for the MCH&S and modernize it. To do list: strip, convert to DCC, change headlights, add ditch lights front/rear, replace all 4 axle gears, paint, decal, and seal. I will not be weathering the unit yet to represent a fresh from the rebuild shop look. Starting out with a Proto 2000 B&O GP30 shown here during initial testing.

Currently looking for parts. Trying to find 4 pairs of working ditch lights.

Both units are currently stripped for the second time. Tried to paint them with rattle can paint but absolutely hated how they came out. My father used to make signs and display boards on the side using an air brush so he is going to teach me how to use it before I waste more time and paint. I need to get moving on this because my patched SD50 is slowly dying.
