Wonder how my HP the Gold gives me???
I am not finished with the strut tower brace either... BTW the strut tower was WELL worth 45 bucks... Pick one up before they are gone!
Kinda in the first stages after stripping the original junk off... Thanks to dennis for his method except that aircraft stripper ate my wrist... haha
And the finished results

That paint fresh! Paint looks good there! You need more gold somewhere else though under there... and the front emblem I would trace the red outline in gold.... paint the radiator cap gold...!

When I read it first I thought, "This is going to be gettho looking" . Now that the images fully loaded, it looks actually nice. Good job! Makes me think, "Olds W41" for some odd reason.

Yeah don't paint that cap, it'll clog it and hold in too much pressure causing problems.

haha I am not going to paint any caps gold. I am going to put an a badge though that has the red replaced with gold for the front bowtie though. This was the exact "gold" I wanted too... the same color found on trans ams/camaro ground effects from the late 80's early 90's
Next thing on the todo list is to get the damn blower/heater duct sanded down and repainted... rust doesn't look good haha... Oh it will be painted black not gold.
