Sorry forgot to ask...did you by any chance take in "in progress" pictures?

I pretty much threw blankets over what I already did and took off the battery tray, heater motor cover, harness clips and starter solinoid.

I then taped off the brake lines and the harness plugs. (normally I'd just unplug it but I didn't want to risk breaking them)

I pulled a few bolts and wire wheeled them and painted em flat black to simulate Oil and phosphate.

I masked off the master cylinder and wiped it all down with laquer thinner.

I scuffed it all up, wire wheeled the rust and shot it with ruddy red primer.
After than that I primed it lt gray then shot the final color.

I replaced all the 3/8 screws with new plated ones. and rewrapped the harness with black tape.

Sorry no pics. I was kinda rushing for a show.
It kinda went from crap to done.
