Painting the T90

I started by cleaning the case and shift in my master bathroom's shower stall with Simple Green diluted in a five gallon bucket.  (I told my wife after, but I did clean up the grease and grime rather well.)  After a good soaking and scrubbing with a wire brush, I was ready for the final wipe down and painting.

These are the three main items, plus a grinder with a wire cup, that I used to get the job done.

Casting numbers.  The T90C-1480 suggests it's a T90C instead of a T90A, but the gearing count says otherwise.  I'm not sure what the D.17.67 means.  If you know, drop me a line.

Taped up and primed.

The case scrubbed down to the bare metal.

More casting numbers: T90A-1 and W.G. Div.
Taped up and holes plugged.

Primed.

For fun, I went with Old Ford Blue by Dupli-Color to match the V8 260 that the previous owner, Charlie, had painted up.
