68 H/O resto I recently finished for a friend
Car had been painted a few years ago and had not been done very well, decision was made to keep the body on and make it look as good as possible so it could be driven and shown. One of the original ones and has a very healthy street motor. I tried to keep the engine bay looking as stock as I could, even having custom length date coded wires made as the intake being tall would not accomodate the factory length ones. in the end it was about a year of my time and the result turned out very nice from what I started withfinished68ho005.jpgfinished68ho004.jpgfinished68ho003.jpgfinished68ho012.jpg

Very impressive
That you did that wiper motor in HALF a day is impressive.
On a '66 I helped on, rather than repair the wire and refurbish the original, they decided to buy another, which differed, used a different pump, etc. Took DAYS to iron out the glitches on that one part. Which ended up not quite right.

That is a very nice W-45. I've debated on mine back and forth whether to repaint the Master Cylinder black as yours is - love the way it looks. What is the name of your shop?
