Re: Ian's Tennessee Honey '64 Short Box Step-side - England

A quick up-date, I managed to finish painting the control arms yesterday, as usual I coated up the edges first,

Then hung them up so I could get right round them, they got 2 coats of an isocyanate based 2 pack each, it dries really hard and wears well. (plus it's very shiney )

Yesterday was really sunny so once they'd dried a little, I hung them in my green house to "bake" (DIY paint oven), to be honest I've been so busy with other stuff this year this is probably the first time I've been in there.

I'm really pleased with the way they turned out, next job will be to fit the ball joints and start rebuilding the suspension
