After it was welded up i gave the frame a coat of hempel. I was tipped off about this product from another board member. It sprays pretty nice and is marine grade so should last some time.
Front crossmember, a-arms, and front springs were all blasted and painted seperately. I should probably take more pictures. I'm just not that much of a photographer.
As you can see the frame is already dusty. Its only been painted a week but I've been working on redoing the soffits on my house (T&G pine) so the saw dust has been flying.
So we're pretty much caught up now, I am going to try and work on it at least a little bit everyday. You can see all the boxes in the background, there is no shortage of parts in my garage, just need time... |
I took my 68 down to the frame. I took the bed mounts off and I couldn't remember where they were. I see your and now I know. thanks and keep up the good work. From Florida
