Completed the oil pan awhile ago and just got time to upload the photo's. It took a long time to get all the years of crud and oil out of it. I was surprised to see little to no sludge in the bottom of the pan. Started out degreasing it and pressure washed the outside. Next I scraped off all what I could. Final step was to take the wire wheel and bring back the metal. After if was done I make sure to check for straightness on the pan and noticed one of the corners was bent. Took a hammer and block of wood and made it flat again. Too knock out the dripper tray from the pan I first put the pan in a plastic bag and turned it upside down and dropped it on the shop floor. This took several attempts but then popped out with success!
