I like the satin finish for the frame, rather than gloss. You should be driving it in a couple weeks right?

...on another note, do you still have the front crossmember with suspension and if so, wanna get rid of it. I'm close and would be glad to come get it.......and also get a peek at your projects. Looking for 5 lug for my 68.....thx.

You will we will have to get together. I want to see your truck . I looked over your build it is very nice.

If I were not waiting for axles and the motor I could have the truck back together in two weeks. The issue is I am fixing all the screw ups the other guy made which happens and also I will have a few weeks in the engine compartment with the inner fenders. I plan to take it to cool April night in redding this yr. Should be fun. That is if it's not raining.

what is your idea on the inner fenders ??

1stchevy · 02-19-2011, 11:24 AM

Frame looks nice!

jwalk · 02-19-2011, 12:02 PM

Frame looks GOOD! It looks like you coated it with the rear notch, front member, and trailing arm crossmember installed. That's how I want to do mine. I've just noticed that a lot of people get everything coated apart. Did everything get covered nice around all that stuff?
