Engine installation day!

[coyote]

Last Sunday, the R2 went back into my 60 Hawk. Still a ton of work to do, but big chunks of progress are always so inspiring!

It's a standard GM color, PPG code WA203C. I wanted something close to Studebaker's Shadowtone red, but a little brighter.

I always get nervous when I lift one of those 700+ lbs when using the aluminum intake bolts! I can just see the bolts ripping right out of the intake!

[silverhawk]

Wow, that is gorgeous!
