Polished proportioning valve.

OK,
I needed a new proportioning valve for a 86 Trans Am I am fixing up. (previous owners swapped out the rear but not the prop valve)
So I was able to find one here (TY TG!)
I couldn't just clean it up! Had to make it shine.
Will look out of place but hey I like it.

Once I get mine running right this is the kind of things I want to get started on. Looks good man. How does the rest of the engine bay look?

The rest of the engine bay is dirty original. TPI is clean since the engine was rebuilt but not polished.
I did this more/less out of curiousity. May clean a few more things up but this car is being fixed up to sell.
Trying to get the brakes squared away. Whoever was working on it before really was in over their head.
