These pics really do not do the bumper justice ... the metallic in it is just great ... It's not perfect but falls well within our 85% rule for this car.

I know how much you guys like pictures ....

[Earl]

Is that manifold powder or paint? Keep up the great work mate=)

[merl]

[Brian.]

Damn you Merl, I just painted my valve cover and intake manifold with black wrinkle coat!

Engine assembly will start late this week or early next week so I will be sure to take a bunch of pictures.

Engine assembly, how lovely. I muscled all my motor stuff in and out myself. Lift would be 10x nicer no lie.

[merl]
