Shiny, Shiny Valver bay

[Mish_16V]

Nothing to Exciting people but thought i'd share todays progress...

Took apart some of the engine today, gave it it's annual clean and polish, went a bit crazy and polished and laquered the rocker cover, polished manifold, and sprayed up the mount cover, spark plug cover and hose cover above manifold graphite grey...

Can't really see much change from pics lol...but it took me bloody hours and all the bits are shiny now (take my word for it!!!)


Few pics of rocker cover, can't really see how shiny it is but you can see the laquers keyed well to it. The mole grips are reflecting in the second pic down though







ahh a face only a mother could love...
