John (The Lews), I want one like yours (gas cap). Where can I get one? I had no idea how well it set's off the rest of the rear... like an exclamation point.
On cleaning the engine bay... gee, other than a little road dust, is there any reason for grease and oil/fuel residue to be on the engine and in the engine bay anyway? I had my Chevy 327 rebuilt once.. brand-spankin' new looking it was --- for about 2 weeks. I kept trying to make it look like it did when it was 1st installed... I decided I needed to spend my spare time on more productive things and now only make sure the fuel line's, valve cover's, and intake manifold aren't leaking too much.... and that it still runs like it was brand spankin' new.
Of course, I do spend a few minutes now and then wiping off the dust & oil off in my 250SL's engine compartment. I tend to do this chore while procrastinating about something else under the hood that I should be doing while I'm just standing there... It makes me feel like I've actually accomplished something when I've accomplished nothing or next to nothing.
