Some truck bling came back today.

Last year in a moment of brain ____ I bought an as cast finned aluminum valve cover from 12 Bolt Tom and rather than sending it back in exchange for a polished one I decided that I would wait and try my hand at polishing it.

Well that didn't happen but the short version of the story is that a gent popped up on a group I am in on FB who polishes aluminum parts. I sent him some photos of the cover and asked what he wanted to do it and the price was friendly. shipping ate me up but here are the results that showed up tonight.
First photo is the end result and the other two are the before shots.

That pretty well decks my 292 out with shiny finned aluminum.

Fixed the photos for those who wondered what the bellhousing was.
