Re: No Regrets - The Rebuild post

Smashing: Morning. Read my post on POR and listen to cartman. POR is good stuff. Was developed for the gov't (navy) years ago. I would love to know what they use now. Might be the same stuff but a different color. It's kind of a redish orange color. I first saw it on an early K5 blazer. The bottom of the truck was sprayed with it, EVERYPLACE, even inside the rear drums on the backing plates. The truck came off an aircraft carrier of all places and the navy washes everything with salt water except the planes and this thing didn't have a lick of rust on it. What would they use a K5 for on an aircraft carrier anyway?? Sure as hell there aren't any mud holes or hills to go 4 wheeling on or in. Anyone know?

Little stuff left to do is mount winch, wet sand & buff out and build belly pan\running boards. Body work takes lots and LOTS of beer!!!! God, Guts and Guns made America and God, Guts and Guns will preserve it! The worst thing you could do is get into my sights, but that don't matter, you'll never know it, cause you'll never hear the shotJim or Paladin whichever you choose.
