After giving the engine bay a good clean decided to freshen it up a bit with some new paint. Took the front bar and headlights out to to fit the oil cooler and hoses when the engine is back in.
Decided to paint the firewall rubber insulation black to give it that as new look.

Also gave the K frame a shade of grey. Since I couldn't match the original colour decided to paint it all the same shade.
Started to paint the rest of the bay. Thought I would do the passenger's side first as I thought it would be the hardest side with all the fuel/brake & a/c lines and a bit of wiring.

Gave the power steering a fresh look as well.
