Mine's painted Chevy Orange, I kind of wish I went with red or black, but I still like it. It gives it an old school look, although its hard to see anyways.

You can't really see the block, but I've got some silver POR15 engine paint ready for it once it comes out next winter. Little bits of blue anodized accessories like the billet fuel pump block off plate, etc...

Definately inspired!
Now I have to decide If I can get away with high-heat enamel (same color as the car), or wait and pay the big bucks to have it anodized.......
Sweet motor!
[EDIT] I just noticed you are from Orland Park. Are you bringing the ride to Hooters in Crystal Lake this Sunday????

They will do whatever you want. Good folks to work with.
I had them make the covers and then I painted them.
Cheers!
