We got some done over the weekend and this evening, but nothing really to brag about. We got the engine bay steam cleaned. We have put one coat of paint on the engine bay, and need to put one more.

After One coat of paint:
Since it's going to be my son's daily driver, I didn't go all-out on the clean-up and detailing of the engine bay. But, it will look a heck of a lot better than before. My Son was proud of it nonetheless.
Also, we stripped the wire harness from the motor and transmission. I plan on taking the motor and transmission to the car wash and steam cleaning it sometime this week. I don't want to do it around my house, too messy. Motor and trans with wire harness stripped:
Wire harness pile:
OK, that's it for this time. I debated on whether to even post this, since it's really not much to post about.
Plan for this week: Dropping the motor in place to see where we might have clearance issues. I'm afraid that we're going to see some problems, but I guess that's all part of the project.
Till next time.....
