What did you spray the inside of the tubz with. Can't wait to see some pics

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
 

hello keith if you go to my post #87 you will see what i used to do the frame and i also used it on the tubz , i love that stuff , i may do engine bay with it as im not looking for the smooth paint finish in this build , this stuff is semi gloss and it leaves a small texture look to it at the same time , may not be for everybody but it works for me , here are some pix and my first cut !!!!

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
 

finally done with the right side , my pops its here going overboard with the engine hoist ( lol ) so he's keeping me away from truck , the truck now drop another inch or so , the bag is bottom out now , that all she sang , im good with that , still some triming issues then im good , some pix

Thanks Raull, I went back and looked. I was thinking about doing the same thing painting the tubz on the inside with bedliner. Tubz are looking good in there.

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
 

.. oh, to bag or not to bag ..

My goodness that truck is incredible. ..

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
 

Raull,... your truck looks beautiful!
I still want a set of those wheels.

Any reason you are leaving the 3-speed crossmember in it?

Re: 1971 c10 stepside
 

think about how much money it will save you in insurance, when you tell them your truck has 4 air bags !!
