The car has been baked to remove the paint and seam sealer. It was then media blasted and powder coated in Kingsport Gray. The short block has been reassembled, and I'm waiting on the timing cover—because they accidentally coated over the water pump mounting area—and head gaskets to complete the engine. I'm working on restoring the HVAC box and seam sealing the car to get it ready for assembly.
