The Pumpkin is done in Red Oxide primer from the factory. They never painted them. You can get that anywhere, of course, but you should also get a new set of lock nuts for when you reassemble it, along with a new gasket. The new nuts come with new copper flat washers, which actually seal the bolt portion from leaking..
If anyone else has stuff to send over to Steve, be sure to let me know. I'm heading over there on Friday and have a little room left.
Hum... I should look around for some stuff too...
