Re: (sohc1200cc)
We're being honest, right?
The first thing I'd do is get rid of the painted brake booster and hard lines. I'd strip the paint off of those hard lines, or buy another set and replace the painted ones.
If you're doing a good wire tuck then nobody will see the painted engine harness, but if for some reason you can see the engine harness somewhere keep the painted harness portions out of sight.
Stuff like painted lines and parts that should not be painted will ruin an otherwise really nice, clean car.
You might have already had intentions of getting rid of the painted stuff and just left that stuff there and didn't care if it got painted, so if that's the case then good call.
Other than that it looks like you're on a good track to me. I've complete stripped a hatch down to bare shell and reassembled after paint, and it was fun and frstrating at the same time. Enjoy the build while you've got the time.
