Eastern European Work

Piece by peice, I am taking the engine apart and going through it. Much to my pleasure and suprise I have not found much rust or irrepairable corrosion. The latest advance has been to Pole-ish the covers. A good client/mentor of mine was cool enough to polish and deck my cam cover. I did not want to take advantage of his kindness so I set out to clean 15 years of outdoor corrosion off the other two covers myself. What a pain in the balls. I spent the better part of the afternoon working on them. They still do not look as good as the cam cover that Stu had done. More persistance will get me there.

Persistence is key. Big Daddy is very persistent, and sometimes he even gets results!!! LOL!
