Doesn't look cancerous. Get a flapper disc, then por15 or something of the sort...

Yep. I tried to shove a screw driver thru it. Seemed solid. That being said, theres no easy way to get under it. Besides a soda blaster.

I'd be okay hitting it with some etching primer though? Try to at least stall it from getting worse.

Eventually/near future I'd like to relocate the battery anyways.

I wasn't thinking that far back. But I also don't want to give too much away either.

Relocating the.battery would give you great access. I would nock off the crusties, and use a rust inhibitor/converter. Then.etching primer.


And I like to ad, having this coupe make you much, much more handsome.

Painted L series timing covers make me sad :(

An engine I'm running right now has one, too. Also painted blue, but different blue than the engine block.. but same blue as the head and valve cover :aykm:

Looks like complete ass, but still runs like an L series should.

Agreed. Kevin painted it after a recommendation (mine) not to.
Motor shows up at my house-not only wrong color, but everything is the wrong color. That timing cover included.

I have a fresh cover, unpainted, that will go on when I reseal the front due to dropped chain-again, not me.

Now if I could just find a damned 5 speed.
