Re: '65 Chevy C10 Long Fleet Retrospective Build Thread
Getting ready to drop the engine back in.
Shot some high build 2K Urethane primer on the firewall.
Wetsanded and painted:
I bolted up the inner fenders and marked the rear edges, then masked the firewall out and sprayed undercoating. I used truck bed liner instead of regular undercoating since it dries harder and has a better texture.
The frame pressure washes, scrubbed, and painted. The owners didn't want a full body-off restoration so we just shot low-gloss black on everything. Its going to be driven so no need to fully detail all of the suspension as they didn't want it too nice to be driven
Dropping the engine back in using plenty of padding around the chains:
