Re: PROJECT: How would a Chevrolet dealer build a shop truck in the early 1970s?
Finally finished up the go-kart a few weeks ago. Now the main home project is the truck.
It was a surprising amount of work to disassemble the spare '72 front cross member.
This weekend we took the power washer and wire wheels to the parts. SAFETY MOMENT: I wound up picking more than a few wires out of my shins. #1, wear safety glasses and a face shield and wear long pants.
After we brushed the parts we wiped them down with alcohol, let them dry, and started painting.
We're using black Rustoleum Rust Reformer primer and then spraying Rustoleum satin over the top. It will be interesting to see how it holds up.
