I scrubbed so hard the insides turned blue :banana:Two coats Poly Interlux Light Blue.

Oh I know how bright that the inside of your bonnet is now. I used that color on the interior of a Thistle sailboat I used to own and race for many years. A great color.

An update on the radiator question. I found out you can get a Geo Metro Radiator for an Automatic Tranny car without the lower 6" of transmission/oil cooler. This makes it perhaps 12-13" tall for a 2 row radiator and should fit quite nicely as a 2 row radiator rather than the single row OEM Spridget unit in about the same or smaller space. Looks to be $85 or so new. This one I need to call and get complete measurements on and take a serious look at.

Thank you for the information. I look forward to hearing how all this works out. You probably already guessed how the paint was applied. I think the color is a good off the shelf alternative to the original iris blue.
Regards

With th' bonnet down, at 60MPH, nobody's gonna notice anyhow, Paul! :wink:
