I'm so pumped about getting these heads ready to go. I was going to build the castings I have in the for sale section, but after getting these, I thought they would be a better piece of Day 2 history. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img]

I like it, but would change a few things. Can't make up my mind on the chrome headlight bezels.

Finally got some shots of the car in finish primer.

Very Nice, is that Spies Hecker red primer?

It's Valspar sealer / finish primer. Was supposed to be orange but turned out that color. Has a pinkish red color.
I'm going to use De Beers base and House of Color clear. We are going to apply two coats of clear, block the finish, reclear two more coats, block and polish.

Those Lee Shepherd heads are really neat. They were indeed touched by The Legend. He was an incredible driver and cylinder head man.

WOW! This will not be cheap, but the end result will be amazing.

What color are you going to use?

Paint should have a lot of depth using this method. The color is going to be orange. Still tossing around which paint code.
