What is the process to polish the engine that well? I really like the look and would like for mine to look that nice.
good work bud. i have a 72 also. i need to get to work on it and catch up to you. nice polishing also.
Not that your final result isn't perfect . . but I always finish buffing with blue compound. It leaves a surface that needs nothing else done to it.
Where is the progress on this one? Any updates? Looks great so far. For the frame would a soda blaster and some rattle can paint work?
hey how do you take off the glass? one of my screw is lose....
Progress is very slow now, everything is ready for rebuild. Budget is tight now but it would be ok in a couple of weeks. For the frame, sandblast and powdercoat. It will be more durable this way.
I have read a few threads on here and a few other forums about doing your own powder coating and it doesn't seem too hard or expensive. You may want to look into it.
I know that it's possible to do it at home but I prefer to let a shop do it. They have more experience than me and I don't have something big enough to "bake" it. Maybe I will try it on smaller parts.
great pictures...you did a great job polishing...
