Re: Crash's 72 K10

It was too humid to paint with the POR15 today, so I decided to clean the frame up even more. First I removed some old brackets. Then I decided I would box the area where the LB to SB conversion was done. First step was to create some templates out of cardboard.




Then I transferred the temple shape to some 3/16” plate and cut them pieces out using my hand grinder and some cutoff wheels. It took about 25 minutes to cut pieces out and trim them to size.
After that I welded them into place.






After that I figured I should degrease the frame, I had handled it with grease gloves during the cleanup and boxing.




I also degreased and prepped the axles for paint.


Back to work tomorrow, but I hope to be back to the shop Thursday to finally start the paint on the frame.
