I just removed mine from Brownie to buff the paint on the fenders. Any sources for the barrel nuts yet?

I just recently took the "F" "O" "R" "D" letters off the hood to paint them balck and clean the hood where they sit. I used a small pocket knife to just pry them up a little at a time, working back and forth between the 2 pins. I would sugest possibly using something plastic, in case you slip, so you don't mess up the paint.

Thanks everyone. That info should help. If anyone is needing some badges just shoot me an e-mail. I'll be pulling some this weekend.
