Very nice work Bill! Love those cars too!:thumbup:

I've done my fair share of painting in engine bays and it's no easy task with all those hoses and things in the way....tin foil is definitely your best friend!

Rasky

Oh yes! How did you know I use foil for masking?!!!

You just need to be very careful around the battery and alternator. You may get a shocking surprise!:drool5:

Hahaha....Like I said, I've painted a few engines myself over the years!


LOL at the battery! Speaking from experience?:biggrin:

Definitely a huge improvement Bill.

Little things like that really add up and make a big difference in the overall appearance.

Nice work!

Yup.

LMAO!

I've gotten a good shock when I touched an arcing coil before....won't be doing that again!

Bill....Awesome job. I am going to have to pick up some of the manifold paint. The headers on my Nova need some work.

Just be sure to wire brush them real well, then all the dust off. POR15 makes the stuff that I used. Eastwood also makes a gray manifold paint that is a little lighter in color... works just as well.

You can have a gorgeous engine bay, but if you have rusty headers or manifold it ruins it!!!
