Re: Lola T-70 Mk III
I added the sand-cast texture to the block. Notice the freeze plugs and timing cover are not textured.
It still needs another coat of paint, but not until the oil and water plugs are added. |

Re: Lola T-70 Mk III
Thermostat housing and fuel pump block off. The kit part didn't match my intake manifold.
I was able to thin out the kit's block off plate. I machined the aluminum bolts on both parts. |

Re: Lola T-70 Mk III
I finished the water pump after texturing it as well and making the aluminum mounting hardware and the plug for where the heater hose would go.

Re: Lola T-70 Mk III
I made the head bolts and acid treated them because they were too bright. Added a little grunge too.
