here is some pics of my project. little history, the engine was rebuild 4 years ago, but finally got the car running this summer. I overheated and had to put new coolant seals in. also I painted the engine and while the engine was out I had a friend paint the engine bay. I painted the engine bay literally hours before our big blizzard this last weekend. now I am in the process of putting her back together and taking it to the body shop to get the rest painted.
