Intake, valve covers and water bridge refinished using 3-stage DupliColour process as first seen on Bill Swift's car.

Everything was replated, including the hood latch.

Intake decals by Bertrand Daoust.

Entire front end of the car was repainted. Will post some detail shots after it is polished and waxed in a couple more weeks - paint has to fully cure first.
