I hear you on the paint deal. I didn't know if you were doing just an engine compartment update (fresh motor & clean-up detail) or more. If just the engine compartment, I did the motor, firewall, & inner fenderwells on mine w/o anything to the exterior. But.... Block off plates work too.

Nice project.
Damn, wish I would have known about those before going out and buying these tires. We're gunna see where we're at with these tires and see what the remaining funds look like at the end and then I'll consider the Nittos.
