I finally had time to do some work.
I cleaned up the oil pan and painted the engine bay with POR-15 engine enamel.
That stuff works great. It also goes a long way. So far with a pint I have painted my HSR with 3 coats and the engine bay. I used a foam brush previously to paint with it but the engine bay tore up 4 of them before I switched to a regular paint brush. The paint brush made things very messy. I needed to get into a hard spot so used a 6" brush. Bingo!! the brush worked great, didn't make a mess and didn't hold much paint so it helped spread the paint better. I was about 25% done when I switched to the brush.
