Default Valve cover polish
Just finished my valve cover polish project. I just don't know if the other will happen since its coated black I don't know if I can use paint stripper or something. The intake manifold is next.

It was freezing. You can still see the snow on the wipers. I also replaced the Radiator hose as you can see I did a Mickey Mouse job when the plastic piece broke. I will post the end product in a lil bit.
