Dan,
Alot of people paint the engine bay the body color. I like it better, my
opinion.
I'm sure your car will look great when it is finished.

I removed all the glass, emblems, handles, etc. to get it ready for body work.
I completely disassembled, cleaned and painted all my suspension pieces and
painted them with chassis black, satin finish. I also painted the engine bay
with the same satin black finish.
The car is running, brakes are perfect, wires all neatly wrapped. My engine
compartment looks pretty good.
The interior is all stripped out. Seats, console, door panels removed.
However, the dash pad and gauges are still in tact.
I'm about to spend big money having the body stripped to bare metal, correct
some poorly done body work, and painted.
Now, for the opinion poll. Should I go through the agony of pulling the
motor/tranny so, the firewall and inner fenders can be painted with the rest
of the car? Should I pull the dash pad, gauges to have the dash painted?
One other point, I should add. The motor vibrates quite a bit so, I'm
guessing I have a bad motor mount.
TIA,
Dan McHatton
