paint or powder coat?
My rebuild is not going to be a ground up, so I was wondering what you guys thought, if I should paint or powder coat my motor accesories and other stuff under the hood? I have all winter to work on stuff, its not like I'm needing it done quickly. I realize painting will be alot cheaper, but not sure which way I want to go with it. Thanks for any input

Re: paint or powder coat?
Randy, I am sure most people will vote power coat but I guess it depends on how original your build will be. The General never powder coated it. I thought about coating mine But I had several "car" people tell me it needed to be painted. If you paint it with a good paint is should last a long time.
