curious, my father does powdercoating for his old muscle cars and i am wondering if my two Orion 2500d's with some iffy and corroded cases would come to life if they were done up...

opinions?

Paint or powder coat always look nice and unique.

yes he has a big old oven he uses and hopefully the 26" or so long amp will fit in it haha

i tell you what, they would look fantastic when they were done.

they would seriously look brand new. but you might not be able to keep the 'etched' logo unless there is some kind of material you can put on the etching ORIOR HCCA or whatever logo to keep from being colored.

and if there are scratches and dents, they will show up plain as day. you will have to ask your father what the best way to repair them before the process.

and you might be able to earn your pops a few $$ by selling his services on this forum.

The "blue ones" are actually a candy purple. They look the same as my valve covers. It's just the lighting that makes them appear darker than they are.
