And the final polish. All swirls and halos are gone!

I also use a lot of light on the panel when polishing. It really helps seeing the swirls and spots you may have missed.

Hope that helped answer some questions for those who were curious!! More to come....

Cheers
Dave

Thanks guys! 390 is at the machine shop getting cleaned, baked, bored and stroked! Should have it back at the end of the month. I decided on a mild build on the numbers matching block, a little over stock, bringing the cubes to 416. Since I'll be selling the car anyway, always better to claim numbers matching with the engine actually IN the car than "Yeah, it's the original block but its in the trunk".

Next week Christmas Part Deux is coming with packages a plenty showing up! Mo' to come later this month!!

Back to work.....

Cheers
Dave

Your work just amazes me and I love that Mustang! Of course I really dug the Super Bee too! I'm always looking for you next post.

Thank you Guys!! I’m gathering info this week since I’m on the road....and of course, ordering parts! Hopefully late next week I’ll be underway to a relatively complete undercarriage and drivetrain!

Cheers

Dave
