Re: balckout/undercaoting

Ron, There was a recent post on the blackout on a 65 N11 exhaust with in the last few weeks. It was a original exhaust, not sure you'll like it though unless you want to be totally correct. Do not forget there truly is nothing as the original any way. the coatings on the exhaust was not your typical spray bomb. Although the judges make remarks on the paint margins there truely were no two done a like. theres likely more point deducts for other issues with the exhaust system and should have configuration,,finish on pipes(factorys pipes were carbon steel) points deducted anyway,as paint is a finish and should not really amount to much.
