Re: 71 4x4 SWB

Picked up my powder coated parts today and have my truck back. Really happy how it turned out.

A little paint goes a far ways. Pretty happy how it turned our after doing some cleaning.

Re: 71 4x4 SWB

Getting ahead of myself as my truck isn't even running yet, but I decided to take my bucket seats apart. I was a little scared initially! I had them blasted to see what was actually there. All said and done they need a little metal work but not too bad. Definitely salvageable. Blew some paint on them for the mean time as not sure when I'll get that done.

Also found some sweet rims that I couldn't pass up and had my tow hooks powder coated.

Re: 71 4x4 SWB

Opinions on my valve covers? I had them powder coated orange and eyeballed the color when choosing. Seems I need to get my eyes checked....you guys think the contrast looks good? I don't want any chrome so I'm going with color.

Re: 71 4x4 SWB

Looks really yellow-orange then the red-orange that chevy orange is. Coming together nicely though.
