Re: 77 stepside street/strip rat build

I've finally been able to work on the pickup the last few weekends. I decided to completely disassemble the chassis and sandblast everything. I primed it over the weekend with two coats of epoxy but the paint store accidentally gave me flat black instead of semi gloss. I guess I should have checked before I left. So hopefully I have time to tack everything and get it sprayed within the 72 hour topcoat window of the epoxy...I don't want to scuff everything. I also picked up an 850 speed demon. The transmission and rearend are still yet to be addressed. This project has had some "scope creep" and I'm not sure how much money I want to spend. One thing is for sure though, a stock th350 and 3.08 gears aren't going to cut it. Here are some pics:
