Re: 65 c10 SWB step side

Made a little more progress this weekend. Wiped the frame down one more time with acetone and sprayed it Friday night with a few coats of primer. The weather was a little better yesterday then expected so I decided to pull the rear axle and trailing arms into the drive way and scrape/ degrease them. I think I probably scraped about 5 pounds of crap off of the axle. Drug the axle back into the garage and fired up the heater while I prepped to spray the frame. A few coats of gloss black later and it looks great. Makes me glad I spent a little more time prepping the frame. Just kept telling myself an extra few hours makes all the difference later. Now to get the trailing arms and axle finished up while I wait on the rest of my parts.

Bench seat should be gone on Friday if this guy actually comes and picks it up, and may go Thursday to pick up some bucket seats.
