I have been making progress and finally have my engine bay all painted. I am beyond excited to start putting parts in it.
This car was fairly bashed up having been auto crossed so its not perfect and straight but it will be organized, clean and functional.

looking good alan.... can't wait to see your whole car in paint...

Thanks Steve!! And, you're not the only one!!
I can't wait but I have to!! Plan is to get it rolling again before I go for final paint. Too much risk of damage in my little garage!

you have done away with the heater?

It's on a shelf for now, if I find I want it, I will reinstall. But remember, I am 3 1/2 hours south of you and for the 3 times a year I might need the heater, I'm happier to have fewer things to go wrong or leak. I did find, and may install, a small electric heater to use for defrost.

i was looking at the holes filled in where the hoses go thru the fire wall

As long as you like my cold air intake box...
Yep, I plugged up some holes in the firewall but they are really just plates tacked over with a little seam filler so I can go back if need be.

cold air box is a great idea, i love the application
