Which Krylon color did you use on the frame? From the pics it looks pretty close to a 60-70% gloss. Lookin' good!

To give you guys an idea of how clean the frame is on this truck, here's the cross brace that Keith removed. I '"washed" it with soapy water, and this is how it looks. Too bad the body wasn't kept undr cover. While it is "very" nice, the frame shows how nice it would still be if it had been kept under a cover.

For color, we like to drive these things which means stuff will get chipped/scratched & we want to be able to do quick spot repairs. The frame/suspension are coated w/Krylon industrial semi-flat black (available @ places like Grainger & Fastenall). Easy to apply, dries fast, but is not bullet proof. If there's any hint of rust on your frame (none on this one), use a DA sander on the outer surfaces to remove as much as possible (all of it if possible). A large diameter wire wheel on a drill will help get stuff off the inside surfaces. Just wipe everything down w/thinner or degreaser prior to laying down your choice of color. Use 'lint free' towels too to keep things free of lint trash.

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
SCOTI is right, that is a fool proof way to prep one if you are going to drive it and not make a trailer queen. For the paint, I have used Rustoleum Semi Flat Black that I got from Home Depot and was very pleased with the results. Same as the Krylon, tought but not completely bullet proof.
I hope the we get to see more of Hazel soon, I know he has other more important things on his plate right now.
