1942 dodge engine compartment (and no it's not mine)

[JIPJOBXX]

This picture is taken of a friends 1942 Bussiness Coup Engine and as you can see its almost perfectly original! When I look at mine I can only dream that my engien would ever look like this! But it great just to have a friend who owns the same year car that I have but his is a piece of art!

Jon.....you can make yours look real good with some Por 15 brand

Por 20 high heat aluminum and a 1 or 2 inch brush for the block.....then

some nice black for the accessories. Not all so hard to do....just takes

time.

You can get a finish like those black parts using spray bombs. You have to spray 2 thin coats of black, let it dry, wet sand, then 2 more coats. Do this 2 or 3 times and you get a beautiful finish. Finally wax it to preserve the shine.

Yes a lot of work but does not have to cost a lot of money.

pretty but not correct. Would loose points at POC judging.

Jon,

Would you post a photo of your friends 42 Coupe. I'd love to see it.
