Looks nice polished but I doubt I'll go that far.
Google CORROSION X for a great product to keep them this way.
Need to find some AUD tags for you to make them complete.
Very nice job

Re: 64 Austin Cooper S 1071.
Looks stunning and really inspirational. Would you mind letting us know the process you use to get the manifolds and carbs polished to that standard. Is it with compounds and polishing wheels?? I have a few steering wheels I want to try to revive. Many thanks. Mark

Re: 64 Austin Cooper S 1071.
Hi There....
Thank you very much for your kind words.....
Yes, i spend a few hours on thoose carbs. used polishing wheels ( and compunds yes ), and a lot of rpm´s! on the grinding machine. (2800). You can´t get it like this by hand.
Used small polishing wheels on a drill machine to get in all the corners and places you can´t get on the big machine....

Re: 64 Austin Cooper S 1071.
Great post. Any chance you could add a 'how to' guide in the technical section? Might help other forum users. Cheers. Mark

Hi Rene'
Looks as if your well on your way.
Very nice time spent to detail.
I'm looking forward to the day with mine.
What was your choice of cam and final drive?
Regards Scott
