Ok, I finally put away some time to post these pictures of my car. I cleaned, painted, and primed the engine, and no, I didn't pull it to do so. I masked off whatever I didn't want painted the metalic Pontiac blue paint... Yea, I couldn't do the entire block, or the back of the heads or intake manifold, and it is not show worthy, but I'd say it looks pretty good. Before I got my hands on it, the whole engine looked like a pile of rust. As you can see from the pictures, I could use a new set of plug wires, and the driver's side exhaust manifold gasket leaks a little, but most of all, I need to get the car running. I can't wait to hear the engine all fired up again.

Not bad... But the color on the mastercylinder would look better in stock colors.... No offence meant just my oppn.

Thanks for the comments. It does need some body work bad. The quarter panels are rusted so bad due to a poor bondo job which is now begining to show. I agree on the master cylinder comment, I deffinitely should have painted it that gold metallic color, like it was stock, but I had extra blue metallic engine paint, so I just used it up. The interior is beautiful. Although the seats look really nice, they are really worn out... when you sit in it it smooshes down a lot. Overall the interior is excellent. Once the engine gets running good, it will be a really really nice car. I would like to pay some attention to the body, but I dont think that will happen any time soon. I'll get some more pictures up soon.
