Something you might consider since I just mentioned
dollar store, is you can get lots of cheapo supplies there like toothbrushes,
engine cleaner, wire brushes, tape and other handy things, especially if you are
NOT going to pull the engine. Heck even if you are, but I have detailed many a
car.....especially on a small time frame...engine bay for shows like ISCA at
Astrodome, they look great, and easy to do.

to clean the bare engine bay. Any pointers
Rod,
all I can say is DETAIL. Tape off the suspension, remove as much as
you can from the engine compartment and tape off what you don't. Be sure to
sand everything really good. It is all in the small details. You don't want it
to look like you just painted everything willy nilly. I am in the process of
preping my engine bay right now. I have removed everything except the steering
collum and brake parts. i will be removing that stuff as well. I will be
removing the suspension and cross member as well.
I have rusted battery pannel to replace and that is my next order
of business.

wondered if anyone had any advice, pointers or tips ?
I know Im going
to reroute a few wires and paint the wiper motor and
things, but
wondered if anyone has ran into any BS while doing this.
Thanks for any
info. Rod
