I noticed that most early M cars had red radiator fans... So, as homage to the early M cars, I decided to paint my rad fan red with some really cool Rustoleum Plastic coat paint when I replaced the fan clutch.
Is my radiator fan sexy or what??? :cool:

You're engine bay is purty, wish I could say the same.

Ah, it's a 20 footer. Looks good from a distance. I just spray bombed the whole engine bay when I had the motor out. Not the best paintjob in the world, but I had rust in there I was trying to get rid of.
In retrospect, I wish I'd have paid someone who's good at laying paint and had a real spray gun to come in and put on a few coats after I did the prep work... I was doing it on the cheap though.
Thanks for the compliments though!!! :D
To complete my homage to the early M-cars, I'm going to eventually have the valve cover and intake manifold powder coated in black wrinkle coat. That's for another time down the road, however. :rolleyes:
