What did I do, made a dang mess!!! Tried freehand brushing the rocket emblems body color but failed IMO. So in typical Scott fashion I went backwards, removed the paint and now I'm here. I have a plan for a redo, hopefully have better progress tomorrow.View attachment 122670
i think because that embossing is on the larger side compared to the thinner version (say the horn button size)it's gonna outline big no matter what and look like a weird peace sign.i like it all black,it's a nice touch that not everyone will see rite away.that's just me though.

Welp, there you have it. I picked up a dark gray can of color coat this morning, sprayed just the rocket emblems then untaped. Went back to work and when I got home the paint was cured enough to tape up. I thought I did a good job taping them up, but no bueno! Looked like crap so I got pissed and just sprayed them all black again. Not wasting anymore time since my front belts should be here tomorrow.
 
Installed one 1600cfm electric fan on my car. Right now it's wired to a switch until I figure out a better way. So far the fan seems to be working well, really pulls the air thru. Takes a few minutes for the temp to drop. Used 12 gauge wire with 30 amp fuse coming off my fuse panel. Ground coming off the top of alternator.

You need a shroud.
 
I'm gonna have to figure that out....probly gonna have to go to the junkyard and grab different sizes
Grab a set of dual Dodge Intrepid fans. I've heard a lot of positive reviews using them. That will also take care of the shroud situation.
