Jason's Engine Rebuild Project Pt 4 - Engine Bay

Before I installed my rebuilt engine I cleaned up and painted the engine bay. Here are some pictures just before I dropped the engine in taken on May 19, 2012.

The talk about cleaning up engine bays reminded me I never posted any "in process" pictures of my engine bay. Just loaded a few including pictures of my brother Mark who was a big help doing the dirty work!

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments
