Engine bay restoration.

I had my 10 year old niece install mine without instruction just put it there. Not perfect but perfect!

Tasking like that is a great way to get the youngin's interested in our old cars. Now she will walk around at a show and check out all the air filter decals.

I stopped in the shop today for a few hours. A few more items installed.

Did you take more stuff apart? You need to add Scott to your blocked list. ;)

It has all been removed since this winter, but you are correct it is Scott's fault:icon_winkle:

Looking good!

What's left before fenders and front end pieces?

It is your fault and I thank you, now that I am nearly finished. I still have plenty to do, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Guys like you and the others raise the bar.
Peer pressure is a ***** around here.

Thanks, that is just about it. Bleed the brakes, wiring harness and ignition wires. I still need to prep and paint the radiator bracket and the inner wheel wells. I hope to at least get the prep and priming done this weekend

Yes I did. I laughed when I saw it. I remember watching that show as a kid.

Getting closer I now have everything painted. I just put down color and 3 coats of clear on all the engine bay items, fender gutters, wheel wells, radiator bracket... I can now start final installation. :yaayy:

This is all of Scott's fault.

The bridge from intellectual to emotional burned to the ground, mostly thanks to Scott. We all benefit in a voyeuristic sort of way though...

It's called living vicariously through other people's wallets

There's only one way to do things. I'm glad Mike saw the light and he will be too when it's done.

Scott I have seen the light. It is shining through my shop window on my saddle bronze wheel wells:icon_cheers:.

Looks great Mike.

Just for you Scott I doubt if I would have done this 6 months ago.
