Re: Trying to make Junky perhaps just a little bit Funky...

It's been a while since I posted any progress, but in the past month I have finally setup a vacuum and dust collector for my blasting cabinet. I used the Dust Collector brand Home Depot sells.

I also finished blasting and painting the control arms and spindle for the left side of the front end. I also painted some of the frame, mostly the top, with Chassis Saver.

I got a $9 spray gun from HF and tried it out on the control arms, spindle, and frame and it worked pretty well.







I completely destroyed the paint can I got from Home Depot that was holding the rest of my Chassis Saver paint. I could not get another one on a Sunday because the closest one is in Bergen County NJ and they are closed by law on Sundays, and I was not going to sit in Sunday traffic to get a $3 paint can.

The specs for Chassis Saver say to keep it in metal. Well, I poured the leftover paint in an empty soup container from the Chinese restaurant. We will see how well it holds up. I should probably go check on it.
