Improving the engine bay apperarance.

[keith88]

I just bought my charger a little over a mouth ago and it needed more work than i was hoping on but i was able to make the engine compartment look better with a little paint, not done yet but looking a lot better it did when i got it . The engine its self is done for the most part ,what a difference a little paint can make. I know it is ford blue but i am not a fan of the lighter Chrysler color. Here is some before and after  shots.

The correct turquoise engine paint is available from summit.  I have an original '68 and sprayed a sample on a spot on the valve cover, and couldn't find the spot later.

I chose the ford blue for the darker color to contrast the light color of the car and intake. I am not a fan of Chrysler blue anyway. I would have done the engine in orange but thought it would be to much orange on one place!

Just a FYI. A battery disconnect is a great idea but should be on the negative terminal to prevent sparking while connecting.
