Restoration: Engine Progress

This post is more of a sneak peak than anything else. The engine will be sealed up this weekend. I am not going to go into detail about all that's been done with the motor in this post; rather I will save it for the "unvailing" of the engine when it is 100% complete. Christopher Markley is a "must keep" mechanic. He has done a great job and has always come to us with solutions accompanying any problems he has come across -- nothing worse that someone who comes and just reports the problems.

Shroud and flywheel covers are powder coated with to look similar to stock as well as look pretty through the engine cowl "grill".

Without a doubt, Christopher's attention to detail did not stop with the internals of the engine. He continued to add little subtle finishing details on the externals of the engine using a "mock chrome" powder coat finish.
