Hi everyone
I'm pretty new to Monster's, having recently found this tired example I feel in love. I'm stripping it down, getting the frame powdercoated etc. Unfortunately budget and expertise wont quite stretch to the same treatment for the engine just yet. Having looked through the various threads on engine painting I'm thinking as much prep as possible, a good spray can silver on the inner areas and fins, some kind of black on the outer covers off the engine, then put it all back together with a stainless bolt kit. Obviously using high temp paint etc.
Anything obvious I've left out? I've included pics below to show just how much this is needed!
Thanks for the help
