Re: Project Old Blue, 1965 C10, Rebuild Version 2010
The next day, we both went back to the shop for a few hours, he stayed longer than I did and was able to get more done on his truck. I got my front suspension partially disassembled to make cleaning and painting it easier. Glad I did too, both outer tie rods where shot...the rest was in good shape! Worked on the center link with a wire wheel and a flap disc to smooth it up and blend in 55 years worth of beatings...
Next time I head to the shop, will be with some more DA paper to smooth out the rails a bit more where it has been chipped and damaged over the years since the frame off was done. Then clean and paint with some gloss black rattle can.
