GVD Powder Coat Work
Here are a couple shots of the powder coat work GVD did for me on the top end parts that are going on the 402 stroker build I've got going. Used the same PC our pole dancing fan from Houston rhipsher used, Tiger Drylac Anodized Silver P/N 38/91020.

Re: GVD Powder Coat Work
Good choice. And the best thing is it will last a lifetime. And every time you pop that clam shell hood you'll crack a smile looking at that beautiful pearl under it. The LT5 is the best looking engine ever put in a Corvette period! And thats just all there is to it.
Congrats. If you think it looks good now just wait until its all back together. Last edited by rhipsher; 12-22-2011 at 08:58 PM. |

Re: GVD Powder Coat Work
That is beautiful.
When they PC it do you have to paint the lettering afterwards, how does that work? Also very curious of the cost GVD is charging for their fine work? |
