Went to kyle's last week to check on the CB, its coming along quite nicely!
Also started working on some of the detail pieces, I bought some semi-gloss black engine paint that I am very pleased with the finish of. I will be using it on several pieces throughout the bay, the biggest piece of which is the engine block and tranny themselves.
I cleaned up the block in more ways than one. It was VERY dirty and took several days to clean. I also saw a couple nasty seams of casting flash and unnecessary extrusions that were sharp and not very good to look at. About an hour with a dremel and some small files and the block looks way better. Above is the main ugliness I did not like.
And gone!
This is where I finished for the day, with the block primed with 2 coats of primer.
Stay tuned for more!
