Project: BLACK METAL - '67 Camaro

[67rally]

Finally, no snow! So I pushed the Camaro out into the driveway and ran the propane heater for a couple of hours to get ready to paint the engine. I was just in a T-shirt and I was hot!

I cleaned it up with a variety of wire brushes and dremel attachments. I left the heads, intake and oil pan on, but taped them up. I won't be using any of them for my build, but I know the heads and intake have some re-sale value. Hopefully the new heads/cam/oil pump, etc arrive later this month. I already have the new intake and throttle body ready to go as soon as I get my new heads. (yes, I know the timing chain cover will have to come off and ruin my new paint job, easy fix).

I sprayed it with Duplicolor engine primer and ceramic RED engine paint. I broke the rules, it's not orange, but hopefully the Chevy guys will still talk to me!



Here it is all taped up:


And with the tape removed:
