Hi all,

Thought I'd take the time to upload photos of the Scamp's Slant6 I'm rebuilding. Unfortunately no camera was available for pics before all the work started, but I'm getting in-process shots now and will have finish photos soon!!!


Image
Here's The Scamp!!!


Image
Pre-prep Valve Cover -- This isn't TOO bad, the block was way worse!!!


Image
Engine Right Side -- No rust left on this block!!!


Image
Engine Left Side -- Dig those brassy freeze plugs!!!

Just FYI, all the accessories are getting painted black, including oil and fuel pumps, dipstick tube, air cleaner, dizzy, etc., etc... incidentally, it was noted that rust is already starting to accumulate on a 3 month old brake booster, so it's getting removed and painted also.

Thanx for looking guys, and I hope you all enjoy the process!!! Check back for updated pics!!!

Seriously? What is the name of the color on the block you are using? That looks so sweet!

I can't recall exactly what it's called, but there's plenty of empty cans to consult!! Will be back at it later today, and I'll upload more pics AND the paint's part number!!! :)

Hey twiggster007, I see your 73 is an a/c car. The metal hose that runs down the passenger side fender has bent pieces attached with a single screw that holds the line down. Could you post pictures showing those hold down locations? How many hold downs?
