Nice.

 

you have to download it, using the right click and then "save target as".......what kinda paint did you use? - it doesnt look very smooth - but it still looks good

 

Copy and paste the urls - that's how you handle all Geocities links from other websites...

Mike the engine looks good! I did the same thing as you (valve cover, battery tie down, radiator mounts) but in red. And next time you take a pic like that, either turn off the flash or clean the engine bay so we don't have to see how dirty it really is.

hey who did you get the idea from?????he must be a cool guy!

you need to put a double coat of that base paint(black) really well for the chromallusion to show.


i can't see anything cause the site is down.

 

the only thing i have to say...


that is one dirty engine bay...

 

yeah it looks good....

 

Whoa Whoa Whoa....I was excited so thought I would post pics, Thai, I did 5 coats of black base, 5 of the middle and like 6 or 7 of the clear...trust me its smooth as a baby's a$$, but I think the flash messed it up...anyways I am cleaning the engine bay today and working on small parts here and there on the dremel, will post more pics later today

 

what did u use to polish the valve cover?
very shiney than mine. i use fine sand paper.

 

Looks great. For those who don't have the time to do this kind of work. I just got another valve cover in. It's up for sale. $145 shipped + core.
