Default Carry all 2 Paint or no paint?

I have a carry all 2 with a 16 hp briggs I am trying to sell. Havent had much luck. My question is should I paint the aluminum body? If I do paint it should I fill the grooves or not fill them? Just looking for thoughts.

I would not. If you are trying to pretty it up I would consider painting the front body only, those wheels don't do much for looks but more expensive to change those out. Sometimes if your price is right it just takes a while for the right person to find it.

i would not paint it at all ...when you do you cut the number of buyers to the ones that like the color you choose ... a cheap trick on wheels is chrome lug nuts and center caps

I own a body shop and am in the car business and have been 25++ years. I would leave it as is if I were you one because it will tighten the buyers market and two, it will make it hard [if not close to impossible] to recover the money spent to paint it. 99 times out of 100 customers will prefer to find a vehicle in its original paint no matter the shape as opposed to fresh. Although nobody hardly ever is there is always a chance there is that one guy that is trying to hide something and that ruins it for the rest of us trying to to the right thing or good thing or maybe even the fun thing.

I wouldn't paint it either. But I would advertise it on here and you'll probably find a buyer quickly.

It's a good looking cart and as far as the wheels, I agree about the center caps and lug nuts, even though mine are black powdercoated.

Well I guess I shouldn't paint it then. Seems to be the common answer. Didn't even think about posting it here...
