Default Engine paint finally done

Well it took a while to get up my nerve. I took most everything off the top except the carb and everything off the front including pulleys, etc. I left the exhaust manifolds and oil pan alone. Used spray and brush on Bill Hirsch pontiac metallic blue. While I was at it I did all the engine bay, fire wall, radiator, etc. in satin black enamel. Masking and Patience are the key. I'm really happy with the outcome.

The paint near the exhaust ports and some spots on the intake are already taking on a
nice burnt hue making it look more "original".

I tried to attach my first jpeg here.
