The SSS restoration grill I just sold because it was a shitty job of a restore. This one I did myself for way less money, still need to paint the black on bezels, but maybe I won't either. Love the chrome. Grill looks awesome! 3 Quote Link to comment

Did you guys notice the emblem. It’s for a coupe rear but to me it looks at home. Also I did not paint the bezels inserts but I like the chrome as well. I restored that grill for half what I paid that SSS restorations and way better job. 3 Quote Link to comment

Yes I did notice the emblem and it looks it was made to be there. The bezels look good like that too! Did you have a Ontario Metal Polishing do the grill? Did you take it apart before hand? Luis. 2 Quote Link to comment

That's why I try to do everything I can on my projects. You can generally take the time and do a better job. It's much more gratifying when it's done and back on the car. Nice job, Mr Big 👍 3 Quote Link to comment
mrbigtanker Posted February 10, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2021 Untitled by raymond medeiros, on Flickr Untitled by raymond medeiros, on Flickr Did a quick run on this valve cover. Vapor blasting. Looks real good but does not remove paint very well, hence why its safer for delicate parts 3 Quote Link to comment

Check out the video. I was going to mention this to you the other day after you mentioned how you did the cleanup on that other valve cover. Vapor blasting seems like the future of parts cleaning, really. GLWS on either of the awesome 510s. 2 Quote Link to comment
