I purchased a set of three lionel streamlined pass. cars that have been painted for the NYC. They are very well done. So what do you think, should I leave them be or try to restore them too the origanal finish ???
They look nifty because they’re different. Though if you’re looking for a project and prefer the original finish, why not restore them?
Nice cars buy: either they’re not Lionel (Williams maybe?) or they’ve already been painted over! Jon [8D]
I would leave them if they are in good condition. If you want a set in original livery, pick up another set, perhaps one that needs restoration. You could always sell the NYC cars later to someone who has more affection for the NYC (maybe me [;)]).

Thanks for the input guys… they are definitly lionel repaints. Since I already have another full set that are original , I think maybe I’ll start looking around for a NYC set of lionel F3s to pull them.
