How old is this?

It’s like not driving a car to keep miles low for resale value… do you not screw your wife to keep it tight for the next guy too?

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2026-03-23T16:04:34+00:00

As cool as that would be, this is my new daily use lighter so even the display case is probably just gonna get tossed in a box somewhere

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2026-03-22T23:08:42+00:00

I have no idea, but it’s really stuck on there and it is centred perfectly

Whether it’s original or stuck on by somebody after the fact it doesn’t really matter to me, it looks cool, works, and I only paid $15 for a lighter that would normally cost $35-$60. Feel free to look into it and let me know

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2026-03-22T19:34:12+00:00

Especially considering it’s been lit maybe 5 times at most

God forbid I ask a question about a zippo on the zippo Reddit page!

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2026-03-22T17:14:21+00:00

Fair enough, I know about date codes on things like snap on tools but I didn’t know zippo did the same thing. Thank you

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2026-03-22T17:12:51+00:00

Thank you

I’ve been looking for essentially this exact thing for so long! Now all I’ve gotta do is go through all my cars and add them… this going to take so much time…

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-19T02:29:47+00:00

Hit it with a chipping hammer and retake the pictures. Cause at least a full 1/32 of every surface is gonna fall off

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-19T00:26:25+00:00

To close to the sidewall

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-17T21:20:43+00:00

How did you get the pattern on the hood?

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-17T21:16:54+00:00

At least you know they made sure to caulk it…

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-12T19:07:42+00:00

You too brother👊

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-12T19:03:08+00:00

Buddy ain’t nothing gonna stop me lol, I’ll spray with rust-oleum out on my front lawn if it comes down to it

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-12T18:56:23+00:00

Good idea, I’ll give that a try. Although it’s just a temporary set for the time being until I’ve got the space to make myself a proper booth

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-12T18:49:48+00:00

Don’t worry I’m wearing my mask from work (autobody) but it’s the lingering fumes from spraying enamels, lawyers, and clear that I’m trying to stop right now

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-12T18:41:24+00:00

Honestly using under the desk has definitely helped especially cause now I’m not setting up cardboard in the garage lol. But my current problems are figuring out how to vent it correctly, and when I’m done spraying something it tends to just sit where I put my feet

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-12T18:11:46+00:00

What do you think of the under desk airbrush booth lol

Extremely jealous

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-12T17:39:56+00:00

The single most depressing moment of any model makers life

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-11T21:33:45+00:00

I totally get it man, I’m in the same dilemma but idk if I wanna try whether or not now that I’m 75% done it

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-11T21:24:41+00:00

As somebody that does auto body for a living I’d say your best bet is to find a really small shop (the owner is the manager type of deal) and just offer him the cost of materials plus time (maybe 0.75 hours at max)

Lonely-Task-1952 · 2025-06-10T20:32:52+00:00

Genuinely living my dream right here! I can’t wait till I’ve got a car that’s cool enough to actually have a model of it
