If you are staying with the old skool look we can even put some chromies on your car and do some happy snaps.

Hey Andrew, were those carbs bought with that finish or did you get them coated?

Jake,
I bought the carbs like that from Xtreme Fuel Systems. Nigel there uses what is known as "steel ball burnishing" to achieve the polished finish. Have a look here

Nigel also did the carbs for the "Mis Behavin" grey motor powered FC

Check out this vid of Mis Behavin's test run:

Looks awesome!
Will the scoops poke through the bonnet when it's all done...?
Wow - a year since I said that. Well, the engine is finally in. Just need a new wiring harness, reinstall the fuel and cooling systems, and we'll be running it in.
