It's getting there!

Well I've spent the last 2 weeks getting the engine bay cleaned up. Steam cleaned it, repainted, fixed holes in the firewall, and rewired it all. The pictures show before and after. Now if the damned machinist would get my engine and tranny done I'd be real happy.

look's great i plan on doing the same to my engine bay this winter. It's been a few years since i got my resto done but years of abuse on the street and strip have aged my engine bay .

And I know that's not easy work. The cleaned up bay looks great!

Wowo - those two sole pictures sure make it look easy...
I just finished the majority of an underhood resto and it was FAR from easy!
Looks great - keep it up!

Made a lot of progress today, if I have 2 more days like today I'd be done.

Very nice! If for some reason you decide it's getting a little cramped in there with the a/c equipment I may have room in my engine bay.

Really looks great, thanks for posting the pics!
