72 'stang engine repainting

Post by glorkar »

So my buddy and I repainted my engine and engine bay in my Mustang. I think it's pretty amazing what 2 guys, a week, and a bunch of spray paint can accomplish.

And it was fun too. And it's also a pride thing knowing that I did it myself and didn't just pay someone else to.

Wow! Looks great. The straight 6 really gives that car uniqueness...don't be like everyone else and swap a V8 in it, keep the 6 and keep it original.

My hat is off to you. Take great pride in that my friend. I know I would. How about a few more pics of the car? That car is the model I have wanted for a long time. And yes, even with the straight six! :bow:
