BTW when you dress them up, you should offer the TW Express OT with light grey bells like the later series Stancors that KF used. You'll thrill the TW cloner crowd.

Good thing I happened in and saw that message. We are trying to figure out how we want to finish these bells. Will definitely keep that in mind, thank you!

I think you should offer the bells of the OT in either black or grey.

Black for the ones that want pacific looks and grey for the ones that want stancor looks.

Your lucky day transformer-man, there's one on eBay:

You should match the wire colors too.

Black and gray bell option would be nice otherwise there's always Krylon BBQ Black for those that don't like gray.

Whatever you do don't put a heinous yellow sticker on it :D Only way I got mine off a mint A3851 was to soak the bell in acetone, followed by a trip to Home depot for some BBQ Black :evil:

Ideally, you can order any customized end bells to your liking. But for web site I think I will showcase a few generic options. Thanks for the link! Thank you guys for your input! -Dave

Here are a couple pics of one I just put the generic bells on. I slapped the pacific sticker on there. Our's might be screen printed instead.

Are you being cheeky? A 6 output tube Express! Above ground nuclear tests are prohibited.

Please don't put the sticker on the bell. Why can't trannie makes stick this stuff on the bottom??? That way you can leave it there forever and when someone goes to replace a trannie in 20 years they'll get a happy surprise.

I'm sure your sticker is mindfully thought out to peel off, but how about after 10 years on a shelf? Or after sitting in a UPS truck from CA to NYC in August?
