Is there an actual paint code for sand glow? I've seen guys try to replicate it and fail miserably.

PPG (24300) and Dupont (44565) also produce Sanglow according to this chart.

SO I got the engine back in and surprise, surprise, it has a slipped liner. I have an old 4.0 block sitting in the shop, so I am going to transfer everything into that. It might be time to start talking about installing a LS engine in her.

Nothing is ever easy.

Q&E in Fullerton CA will top hat your block for $1500.

I finally got the block back from the machine shop. It's all back together. Hopefully this round will go better. I also had a black Interior in th shop, so we sealed that. Re did the headliner while we where in there. I have also been working on the ship LR3.
