Dropped off some paint to the machine shop yesterday. I was having a problem sourcing the original green that Pontiac put on this engine, so I decided to make a sleeper I'm going to go with the grey and put the studs in so that I can keep the valve cover off the 216. With that and the original air cleaner, most people likely wouldn't know the difference. I didn't get a pic, but she's really coming along. Not sure when I'll get around to even installing it, as I'd like to pull the doghouse off, cleanup the frame and the bottom of the cab and put new seals in the transmission. I may enjoy it as is this summer and then really rip into it next fall.
