We can restore cars back to original. But we can't restore originality.
probably a dumb question... i have an engine which was painted bright green...i want strip the paint because i'm pretty certain its not heat proof paint n paint it a different colour. did u strip down n paint your engine or leave it togeher as it stands now and paint it? what did you use to remove the old paint?
EVEN THE YOUNG GIRLS LOVE SANDMANS!
The paint on my engine was pretty good already and came off easy. The heads were already raw. I pressure cleaned the engine and wire wheeled the paint off, put a new gasket kit through the engine then prep'd and painted it. The manifold and timing cover were sandblasted and clear coated before assembled.
As for the tank I seen someone do the two tone before and liked it. i just don't want a sea of black under the car.

I just went and checked Ozboxs thread on diffs. Holes with bushes equals sedan. There were plenty with holes but no bushes on commercial vehicles from the factory apparently.
So commercials had diffs with no lugs, lugs with no holes and lugs with holes but no bushes inserted.
