So while I have my top end torn down Im up in the air on how I should finish it. I polished all the bottom end side covers and I will paint the jug black and the rocker cover is black, but Im wondering if the head should be left aluimium or paint it black also. So post up some pics and give me some ideas.
 
I went with something a little diff.

I like the color cliff. Looks like about the same color I did my wheels in(stainless steel epoxy paint). Im digging the whole top end one color.
 
Rusty rocket, is it going to hit the road this summer?

Sure is Gary. I rode it a few hundred miles the fall of 13 tore it down that winter to powder coat the frame and the it sits. The frame is coated the motor should be back together in a week or two and then reassemble the puzzle. I have been building a 32 ford hotrod at the same time so I have been juggling both projects. By the way I think Im leaning toward painting the whole top end black. I like your fins in raw alum.
