Now have it painted close to a Miller Blue. Everything works. ;) Lower panel is painted, just not installed yet.
	Here is a footpedal I made for the airco. Made from an old set of support rails from a set of metal shelves. The pedal pulls a string wrapped around a control potentiometer. There is a return spring. Have since painted it black and replaced the string with dial cord. I also added a microswitch to control the contactor.
