wow thats nice!!! my whole engine bay hasn't been touched, by me or the previous owner. I'm going to have my work cut out for me here soon lol

Degreaser's a hell of a cleaner. We go through it quick at work. I love cleaning engine bays for some reason.

When I did my Lumina's engine bay last fall I used Simple Grren full strength on everything..let it soak in, scrubbed it down and hosed it off...dried to a nice shiney shine lol...but yeah, I lost the pictures when my hard drive crashes....they were posted on here at one time too..but solidstorage ALSO lost the pictures lol

That hood has been repainted hasn't it?

 

Does it have the GM vin tag?

 

I'm surprised its not rusted like every other W-body hood around here.

my lumina's hood was that clean

Yes, I'm pretty sure it's been repainted, but I'm also 99% sure it was just a top spray, and that the underside of the hood hasn't been sprayed. Also, I don't think the car has been driven in the winter more than a few times, as the underside (aside from suspension and exhaust surface rust) is pretty much rust free. It was originally from florida

if it was a FL car, that would explain the top coat paint and the no rust

elaborate, what does that have to do with the paint?

 

Almost all southern cars have faded paint from the sun.... Especially far south like Fl, Texas etc etc tec

If only I had a camera that didnt suck. it's either the camera on my phone, or a small digi cam that is no better than the one on the phone. If it's nice for a few days I'll maybe get some the end of this week, shes clean and waxed right now, but I need to get my taxes back to hopefully get my new shocks/struts
