Well the truck is completely apart. The frame is headed to the sand blaster and should be painted next week.

Re: 1956 Chevy 3100 Corvette Suspension

I got a bunch of stuff together to go to the polisher. Let's see how these shine after it's done.

Re: 1956 Chevy 3100 Corvette Suspension

Well the frame should have some paint on it in the next day or so. All of the welds have been cleaned up and some primer had been applied. The frame is going to look slick.

Re: 1956 Chevy 3100 Corvette Suspension

Some of my items that went to the polisher are getting finished. I've already posted a pic of my AccuAir Endo-VT tank. Here's a pic of my Raceline Burst 5 wheels.

Re: 1956 Chevy 3100 Corvette Suspension

Well after what seems like forever I finally have some paint on the frame. This is just the frame with just the base no clear yet. I have to get those pics so I can post them.

Re: 1956 Chevy 3100 Corvette Suspension

I got some clear coat on the frame. It still needs to be wet sanded and buffed. Overall I think it's looking good.

Re: 1956 Chevy 3100 Corvette Suspension

I'm painting my motor and transmission to match the color of the truck. Here's the motor with just the base done.
