When I got this there was about 4 square inches of paint left on it.I completely stripped this fan.Including the motor and reworked and painted it.My son was working at a body shop supply store at the time and matched the paint perfectly to the original(and put it in a spray can didn't know they could do that)Anyway she purrs like a kitten.But watch your fingers or she'll bite.This was made by Vidrio and the only thing missing is the tag that goes in the center of the cage.(I have only seen one with the tag)
