I haven't had much time to work on the truck lately but I know you guys like pics, so here are a couple
When I bought the truck, it had lots of new parts but they were neglected from sitting still for a long time. I took the shocks and cleaned them, before repainting them with some epoxy paint.
Sometimes it's the little things that make a difference. I took the calipers and took down all the heavy castings, before also prepping & repainting them with epoxy paint. I then lettered them up with high temp lettering. I've used this same process on my GTO and it has held up for many years now, even after taking some hot laps on the track at Watkins Glen International.
