Hey, I saw my motor yesterday, and I'm going by again tonight after work, they're putting it back together. I've got some pics and I'll take some more. I'll try to get them added in here when I get home.

I want to clean up the under the motor and sandblast that front portion of the frame. What type of paint should I use on the frame?

Only the cam is in right now...

The crank has been turned and bagged...

The pistons and rods balanced...

Then I told 'em to hold up so's I could get the frame painted.

I use Hammerite Rust Cap.You can buy it at your local hardware store and it only cost about $12.00 a pint. It is protects against rust, is extreemly durable and goes on with a paint brush. WES www.ClassicHeartbeat.com (http://www.ClassicHeartbeat.com)
