Yes! I removed the plastic coating, hit them w/ the red scuff pad, then used that DupliColor cleaner, then hit them w/ the red scuff pad again, washed them real good, blasted them w/ air and then slapped a handful of coats on them. I have all but one wheel complete. I have about half of the plastic coating left to remove from the last wheel before I can get it painted up. that really takes some work.

I just gotta figure out what paint im going to use, im not sure if i want to use just a regular paint or something more heavy duty.







Wire wheel the cancer off hit it with a rust oleum primer then bed line it or hit it with BBQ paint its pretty stout

Installed a new water pump and a 180 thermostat. Kinda don't like how cooler it runs now. Not just below 210 anymore. It's just above the white line before 210 now. Hard to explain without a pic.

Yup. My buddy bugged the hell out of me to get 180 cause that's what he has in his 88. Going to switch back to a 195 when I get the money too. Here's a pic to show what it's running at. Drove through town for about 30 minutes of stop and go with heater and electric fan off. Just the mech fan without a shroud.
