ohh look at the poor unloved IIIb.  How much (lenses in most cases not w bodies and since I shoot my gear I use best/interesting era glass not always Leitz) Usually dang cheap.  Most I paid was $200 for the Luft and it came with a chrome Standard

So Micheal is going to paint one gloss black for me.  (calm James Sean obviously not the early finder frame or Luftwaffen one).  Enzo does an awesome job on IIIc and later and M.  


Meeting Micheal Friday.  Need to get a IiIb

Reach into the Barnack shelf.  What the heck, like puppies, they bred. Cheapest was 321144 14 quid UK 2009 or 10. Since it has upgraded IIIf knob and is pretty rough. It is my vote for gloss black.  James. Correct me if I am in error.  
Guess I may have a spare IIIb or two.  And to the fun of hunting and more importantly USING unloved Leica models
