        Yes, it does look good. BUT, even though the engine is already installed, I am going to pull it back out, strip all the gold paint off it and paint it black.
        Every time I look at it I think of Sheba. Not because of her engine color but because of those gawd awful knock-offs she got stuck with on those gawd awful Pontaic wheels.
        I wouldn't be so hard on you if you would post more on the forum instead of sitting in your quonset hut all day looking for pictures on your computer to post in the Americana Studebaker thread.

        And before you ask, yes, I am sitting in a chair as I type this. <GG>

            I second the above motion(s). We could (occasionally) benefit from your wit and wisdom.

              Thanks, Jerry (I think. <G>) and Skip... I think I have told ya every thing I know, though. <G>

              When you don't have a chrome shop, you just color match the wiper motor the best ya can:

                A gold wiper motor. Now why didn't I think of that.

                  Just in case someone is looking for another alternative...I used rubbing compound on my wiper motor for a natural look. It has tarnished some over the last couple of years, but a clear coat might prevent that. I think it looks lots better than rattle can black and didn't take very long. I would like a cover over the exposed wiring.
