Re: 1949 Chevy 3600 into a daily driver

Don't worry about clogging this thread up.....I love these discussions. I always end up learning something.

It is a constant struggle. Budget vs wants vs what is best etc.

Since this is a forever truck I want it done RIGHT.....but ultimately the wear and tear on this chassis will be minimal. I was in hurry when I did some of the rear suspension work 2 years ago and threw some cheap rattle can primer over the bare metal under the bed. It held up great with no prep.

At this point I will knock the loose stuff off and use some KBS Chassis Coat on it. I will cover that with some satin enamel. Good for another 60+ years.
