56pickup:
I will get more pics up soon of the seat shaping. Maing alot of progress so I will be sure to upload the pics this weekend.

chevellenv:
the stainless pieces were sanded and prepped fairly easily. The chrome pieces were near perfect to begin with so they too were all just sanded down smooth and the powder went directly over them.

Default Engine Paint

So the engine is getting its round of color:
The color is a slightly lighter shade of gun-metal for contrast.
All the trim will be black.
Sorry I painted my heads Greg.

I bought a small brush at the hobby shop today.... that way I can leave my headers and everything on and paint around them.

BBC71..... they are GM Performance with the "Chevrolet" machined off.

Greg..... thought you'd like that

I've decided to ditch the Inglese set-up for now because of time.
We are CNC'ing a one-off air cleaner that should be a nice compliment to the engine bay. In the meantime, here it is in all its glory..... less air cleaner.

It looks great. That would be a nice color to do my 6 spd. Nice work.
