That red paint is definitely new judging by those before pics(at least the hood latch & above the radiator area). Underhood looks really nice. :icon_mrgreen:

Thanks guys, yeah, repainted the red underhood, hood latches, rad saddle, insides of the fenders, took off dogbones, stress bars and a few other things and painted them gloss black. Polished all aluminum, sanded valve covers with light grit.

Painted the 3.1 Intercooled Turbo high temp black, I painted it all and them quickly cleaned the top of the lettering with rag and then varsol on the rag.

Gotta clean or get a new windshield fluid container. Any suggestions to clean it?
