Well I got a little done today before Mother Nature revolted, the engine compartment is ready for the pressure washer and some rattle can flat black. I threw in a couple newer pics, how about that patina? I kinda wanna keep it...

I also made a run to the wrecking yard, and scored a couple pieces I need, which lead to my cheap tips of the day:
Need a high output coil? Check out a TFI coil on a fuel injected 5.0 Ford. They're 40,000 volts and fairly compact. I got one for $5
Need a cheap GM mini starter? Try a 94-98 GM pickup 350, 96-98 S-10 or Blazer 4.3, or 97-98 Astro. Compact, gear-reduction, and in my case, $10!
I also threw in a pic of my 95 Cougar electric fan, fits a GM radiator perfectly.
