AdvantageTimberLou Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Re: Vette UPDATE #2 Great to see guys bringing back the old cars, the old hot rods have something that today's cars just don't have! Maybe its that you can work on them without needing a computer! Keep up the work Ryan, its looking good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdvantageTimberLou Posted August 17, 2006 Report Share Posted August 17, 2006 Re: Vette UPDATE #2 [ QUOTE ] What did they paint that block with? ... that cant be the finished product yet right? .... Steve [/ QUOTE ] I was thinking the same thing Steve, the block should be orange for that car. Might want to plug the ports on the heads when you paint it too,don't want the valves having mist and paint on them. If the car is going to be correct you should be able to find all the information on the correct paint colors for the engine. Engines look much better detailed than just "spray bombed" BTW: Did they change the soft plugs in the block Ryan? You might want to make sure and do that, its cheap and will save headaches down the road! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
