Was it rebuilt, all parts hottanked, or other method of cleaning exterior?

Case was power washed. Talk about messy...

I only had it for a 2nd gear syncro replacement and a new output shaft.

Speaking of stupid and such, I'm curious about how many people don't realize that pic is PSed.

Didn't realize when I had seen first time, doh.

Someone who shall remain unnamed asked me how much the paint cost. I'm rather amazed this unnamed person was fooled at all...

Who did the PS? I still think it looks like it was spray painted.

Bah...in my defense, I didn't look closely at it...and I've told you that my contacts are old and have been drying out at night. :(

I think I need a new prescription too. I was having trouble focusing in the viewfinder the last couple of days. :sigh: I may just have to give in and get my eyes checked rather than waiting on one of these two jobs to come through with the benefits. :eh:

Ever worked in PS? If you've altered a car's color before, its very easy to see how you get a look like that messing with hue/saturation/lightness and notice its fake if you're actually trying to consider it.

I used the airbrush tool with a 10% opacity. I wanted that spray can look.
