Welcome to the board, you will have fun redoing your 63. If you need any advise just pm us here on the board. I live in Tulsa and currently have a 65 chevy and a 66 gmc. more than happy to help you save money on how to do upgrades on your truck. I do know of some inexpensive sand blasters around Tulsa and learned that doing it yourself is not always the least expensive way. We bought a Harbor Freight Sandblast pot for $99.00 that you could borrow. The only trick is having a large enough compressor to do the job. If your frame was stripped bare you could get it blasted and epoxy painted for around $350.00 at a place in Sand Springs.....but since you are driving it....it might be better to do it your self......Lots of Luck and Welcome to the Forum ....... Kieth

Here is a link to a 91 burban in okc------could solve all your parts upgrade problems etc.....
