Added some "Bling" to my friends TD

My friend brought over a power steering pump mount casting that he polished, and had me install it (his car was at my place for other work). He even painted the cavities in the casting black! He also took a fuel filter stand from my stock to polish, as well as the power steering pump. The valve cover and oil filter stand were polished already, so this one was next. It was easy to do, as I had the PS pump off to replace the vac pump. I will post a final photo when the other parts are done. Enjoy!

I love polished al u MIN e um (Canadian pronunciation). I opted for powder coat on Mutt's cam cover mostly for ease of cleaning but aluminum sure polishes up pretty.

What was used to polish? Semichrome? A buffing wheel?
