Found one of these on ebay for $123 free shipping from Japan, bought it.

Amazon has them for $140.

Wet sand with 3500 grit sponge, wash and soak in Dawn, rinse thoroughly.

Tamiya non-Fine grey primer.

I'm thinking about painting this, not-black. I like the TS-102 Cobalt Green, like the Squash Van looks.

Will decide tomorrow.
