What have people you done to their fan housing to make it look good?
Can you put engine paint on it? I think that I have seen it power coated? If it’s polished how do you do it and how long does it last? Are there other options? |

Doug, that is a good looking engine. Do you use a wax or just regularly polish the exposed metal as I do?
Bob said that he did use the gibbbs products on your shroud and trans and the oxidation did stop. What effect does the product have on polished sections? Thats good to know as I will not be home to try new things for 6 months or so. I do have one last question. When these cars were new, did the factory have any sort of protection over the metal? What did these parts look like fresh off the transporter in 197_ ? E.g., Whiteish grey dull, oiled waxed etc.... |
