Re: 72 k/20


Cleaned the frame up. Looks to be original paint thru out! Absolutely no rust(except the surface rust on the rear horns that I havnt touched up yet. No pitting anywhere.


I pulled everything but the gas tank,glove box door and wiring from the interior. I had to hose the whole inside of the truck out fire wall and all, the dust and dirt was so thick.
At some point the frame broke by the steering box. It's welded and plated forward of the crossmember, I guess they missed the broken rivet and tweaked crossmember. I'll fix that with a grade 8...
