I may have had the car listed 5-6 years ago, I remember posting all my cars up for sale at the same time, and was looking to sell off at least two of them to pay for my shop. The GTO and '68 Vette were picked first. I likely won't be selling this car, just a childhood dream car of mine, along with my '70 Chevelle.

Tony,
That was the goal when I was planning the engine in my Cougar. I have a variety of finishes, but the colors are in the same pallet.
Personally, I would have the intake and valve covers medial blasted to give them a soft look and maybe even have them hard anodized. One issue with anodizing is that the base metal and the weld may take the anodizing differently which will result in an inconsistent finish. Although it might actually look cool and accentuate the welds. Food for thought.

Similar train of thought. I'm likely going to leave them brushed, but powdercoat them in a transparent finish. Maybe a transparent gray, or I might even consider a dark bronze. I want the entire engine to be a similar color. Will paint the engine block gray, bronze, or silver. |
