pvienneau · 05-24-2013, 08:58 AM

Finished dismantling and removing crust from frame. Recieved 2 parts from fellow board members and added to frame. Did small patching to frame with 18 G steel under cab area, and now ready for paint. Marine Clean, Prep and Etch, POR 15 as Primer then Extreme Frame Black will be used.

What are your plans for the truck? Are you taking it back original or doing any mods?

There is the truck! I was wondering if you were going to start a build thread.

Can't wait to see.

pvienneau · 05-29-2013, 11:36 AM

If you look close you can see the hanger bracket you sent me at the back of the frame.

That's the filling station special formula for the original paint color for the 216's.
Dark Gray
