I am in the process of going through my car, I have been rebuilding the wiring harness lately. Here is how it looks today:



I am debating on if I should paint the engine bay right now. Next year I am planning on painting the complete exterior in a pearl black. I am debating on rattle canning the engine bay in factory black while it is apart, or waiting till I do the exterior and have the engine bay also painted at that time. What are your experiences in the past? What works and looks good in the end? This is not a factory restoration, I am just cleaning it up to look better.
