    EJW-54
    (229 items)

    Trying to decide if I should restore this, one of the decideing factors is rust, if restoreing will help preserve this can longer I think I will. Got a slightly better deal on this after it didnt sell on e-bay last month.

      EJW-54 if you look at my things you will see some of my cans restored and some left alone. I think they look great both ways, personal preference.

      I would put some gun oil on it to preserve it and leave it as is. Great piece!
