Thanks for the compliments.
The paint scheme is growing on me. When I first saw it I didn't think to much of it. But when I saw the ad for the 1966 C337 I see it is the same and I'm liking it more everyday. I couldn't say if the paint is original. I've attached a pic of an A and a B model. The A model pic is the same airplane in the skymaster ad that I was sure I saw on this website but can't find now.
