I wish I would have taken before pictures! This has been in a 67 Newport 383 for 48 yrs! It's been in the same bone yard since I started driving. 4 hours of wire wheels of various kinds , 24 hrs in apple cider vinegar and walla! Sorta ust damn proud of how this OEM water pump housing turned out!s_dancing2:
