Figured a few of you may like to see engine after a little paint..


I got the entire engine back together, I replaced all hoses with new ones ( radiator, heater hoses, etc )

I also painted the valve covers, intercooler hoses, and air intake hose..
this is the color the truck will eventually get painted.. it is called Gun Metal Metallic Blue







I will try to get some better pics when it is brighter outside.

I still need to paint a few things like radiator, etc.. but hey it is getting there..

oh ya here is what the engine is in now

 

That's a pretty nice color. Looks good.

 

Good to see the cc progect moving along.

 

Just like anything else, you've got to start somewhere. And it's looking good thus far.

 

Thanks..

trying to get it done as quick as possible so I can get rid of all these extra 1st gen in my backyard
