  1. That looks sweet. Maybe I'll strip mine and see how I like it. If I don't, I can just paint over it. Here is my last Evo valve cover: I've never had an rag get stuck on it. Like I said, it's smoothe so the rag wipes right over it. Stock cap... I haven't done anything to it. I'll be picking up a new one myself here soon. I'll be picking up all new caps actually. That's part of my cleanup.
  2. Thanks! Every valve cover I've done since I can remember has been wrinkle black. I've never found it any harder to clean than other powder. It's not like ceiling knock-down, this stuff is smooth so you can still run a rag over it easily. Yeah, luckily my engine bay is pretty nice. It's the cars original color still, with no rust. Even the battery tray is solid. Brass radiator could be cool. Oics in the morning of a refinished radiator.
  3. Nice Z... Welcome to Ratsun. I can't believe you let that bitch sit on your car. Hayashis or Rotas?
  4. You're welcome buddy! Glad they're working out for you.
  5. Thanks to an overseas sugar daddy connection, looks like I'm part I the cool kids club now... I've never really collected Hotwheels, although had a bunch as a kid. I live right ToysRUs so maybe it will be easy to keep up with collecting 510 versions. That wagon looks pretty sweet. I wonder when the release date is.
  6. Powder like a bawse 8) I wish I could find a reproduction of the air cleaner sticker to slap on top of it.
  7. Haha yeah I saw that oic in your thread! Looking good! Only thing you need to do is get rid of that Fram filter.
  8. Haha no. I have some primer so at least I can get that out of the way.
  9. Fiiiiiiiine... I'll take care of it.
  10. That would be awesome Jenn. Radiator works good, just a bit leaky.
  11. The 68 is a Borg Warner. They didn't transition to JATCOs until like June '70.
  12. @Spudly/Rat: Thanks! Sounds easy as can be. I thought I had paint, but seems I only have grey and gold. @Jon: My signature is a pixel car.
  13. Thanks, its just an iPhone photo. Haha yeah, pixel cars can be quite time consuming. I love them so I spend quite a bit of time doing them... Im nowhere near as good as I would like to be or as good as some of the people I know who do it.
  14. Yeah I've got some rattle can somewhere in the garage. How easy is it to unbolt the fan while the engine is installed? I'd like to take the shroud off as well and clean it up. Yeah, JRock did a fantastic job on the valve cover and air cleaner. He's hot more parts of mine coming his way too so even more of the bay will be nicer.
  15. Welcome back! Wagon is looking good.
  16. Haha yeah... It's a bit shitty looking. I'm probably going to paint it here soon. Debating to do it now in-car or pull it out when I swap to a new block in a couple weeks. I wish I had the funds for a better aluminum radiator. Mine leaks a bit so it'd be nice to replace. Just don't have the $200+
  17. Damn. I need to get my laptop back up and running so I can enter this. I have the perfect plan.
  18. I thought we were just talking L16 power, but I see your point.
  19. Why are you do far away from me?! Do want!- and so cheap.
  20. I have issues with the site search, but if you click the button that says site inside the search bar, you can change it to Google. Then you're only searching this site and that's what I use. I can do 70 or so in my shitty L16 with automatic 3psd (engine has a 210 head) so its possible. I stopped for gas during a cruise and I needed to catch back up. The car made a bit of noise, but she performed great.
  21. What's the working condition of the carb? Oics? Are these prices shipped or is that extra?
  22. I really wanted to do this... I've yet to eat there and hear its pretty good. Haha I knew BroMaho would catch. Did you tell him about it?
