That's nice work!

[-Ray-]

Time to get the leaves out. LOL
You did a fine job, now you need a Roto-Fab rad cover to complete the look.

[blackbirdws6]

That looks pretty damn good. I can see you put a good deal of time into it. I may do something in the future with the cover.

[dsbk998]

nice

[G8GTlawride]

That looks nice. I hate the look of the silver one.

You mean the way it leans in the back corner of the shed?

[Panther 2]

Exactly!

[jnak]

Nice work!

Why, yes indeed! Looks awful there too! Hell it looks awful no matter where it is!

Special thanks to Crazy Paul for getting me the badge... twice!

You're welcome Peter,

It looks great, kind of adds an "Industrial" look to it with the grill vents in the centre.
You could probably fill in the depressed lettering of the "6.0 Litre" with enamel easily enough if you wanted to add some highlighting to that area.

Did you have to use high temp paint? I want to do the same to match my PSM im sure I wont be able to find PSM in high temp.

It makes a killer nacho tray but sucks as a frisbee

[third_shift|studios]

Looks like a Mad Max engine...nice touch with the steel mesh

[WhiteDeathLSX]

Very nice. I see an additional part time job in your not too distant future. ;)

[catalina421]

That looks real nice, I am planning the same with old pontiac engine blue but what you did with the mesh looks real nice.

[Naptown99]

Sweet cover! now where do I send my cover and my money?
