A small preview.

I thought I would just throw this out there. Maybe I should roll it outside and take a picture..

Re: A small preview.

Looks sweet....the air cleaner and the valve covers tie together nicely. What did you use for paint? Should be a big preview

Re: A small preview.

Epoxy primer and base/clear coat. I will see how long it will hold up. I am not driving it everyday so I should get a year out of it I hope. I am only worried about where the headers bolt up. Time will tell.

Re: A small preview.

Well.. after spraying that paint and looking at it for a bit now, I have to say I don't really like it. I am just not happy with it so I am not going to use it. I think I might go with the other color instead, or another color. Anyone want to buy a gallon of Red paint cheap...

Re: A small preview.

well I changed my mind again. I have not been happy with the color ever since I put it down. I have already scuffed up the engine for repaint. I am going with the original blue color I put on 7 years ago. The paint is still in good condition. I just wanted to change it for some reason, but now after looking at other colors, I find the blue to be perfect for me.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
