I bought some high heat paint to paint the engine and exhaust parts. Bought spray can of Aluminum, Black, and Old Ford Blue. I couldn’t paint though, it would be better to spray outside, but it was raining. Which is okay since I can’t decide if I want to paint the headers black or aluminum. Got any thoughts?
So I used the time to prep the headers for painting, by cleaning them up pretty good with a wire brush. They looked pretty nasty at the beginning, but they are pretty solid and in good shape. The clean up worked out really well.
My cousin also had done some work on the body to make sure everything is very very smooth. He also cut out the nostrils in the hood scoop. It fits way better now, and makes it seem more stock functionality for airflow, and not an add-on.
I used the rest of the time to organize the parts. It took a solid couple of hours. There were lots of parts. I organized based on groupings for body, mechanical, lighting, interior, trim, and a box for the ‘things that make it go vroom and stop’.
Only 1 major problem! I can’t find the battery, master cylinder, and a WHOLE TAILLIGHT! I hope I can find it next weekend. I’m not sure how they would just disappear, they aren’t very small.
