Gave my new Avirex B-3 a classic paint Job tonight.

Help to identify my G1... no label
Looks Aces, Treat that one nice! I love when the collars get bleached out! Awesome! I had one similar, but it was small. I painted this on the back, Though I Knew it could be a little Blasphemous to add this on a vintage G-1 Jacket, after a long time I finally decided it wouldnt hurt...- Dumpster Diver
