Nude Pictures!!!

Just kidding guys, figured an epic title would make for some more views?

You can consider it as nude pictures if you think of a truck frame with no bed on it as a nude frame. lol

Well, hate me or love me for it but this is how I'm doing my frame. POR 15 to be honest, is just out of my budget right now as I'm trying to get this thing on the road as soon as possible.

Here's nothing,

I still gotta finish up sanding some things with a Scoth Brite Pad so I can get the paint on clean and get rid of that rust. Then it's time for the inside of the frame and the bottom to finish it all off. Tell me what you guys think.

Re: Nude Pictures!!!

Looks good man! Did you ever find a manifold? The one I though I had is MIA. I am going tomorrow to pick up a military diesel for my '67 C-30, and I will pulling the 292 out it shortly if you haven't found one by then.

Re: Nude Pictures!!!

Still haven't managed to get my hands on one. I have a friend that has the manifold and carb I need but he has to ask his dad if he'll sell it. Then I also have a guy on the board that's supposed to be pulling a manifold and carb off of his truck soon and get me a shipping/total price quote on it. Let me know when you do get it off though and we'll work something out if I still don't have one.

The frame looks great. I will be buying a few cans tomorrow. Now what kind of manifold were you looking for? Stock or aluminium? I have an old stock cast iron one sitting up.

It's not bad at all, I got it for $9.00 a can and it took a can and a smidge of another to do two full coats on the back half of my frame. It covered pretty good, stuff is super sticky though so if you get some on your fingers wash it off immediately(I've got two black fingers haha). Come tomorrow when I have better light outside I'll take some more shots of all of it fully dried so you can see what the final product looks like. I'll try a few little "durability" tests on it too.

I used a wire wheel to do the majority of the frame and I'm taking a scotch brite pad to the little nooks and crannies tomorrow to finish it off. After I used the wire wheel I just used some shop rags bought from Advance Auto Parts and put some Mineral Spirits on them and cleaned all the grinded paint/rust/dirt off. After that I used another rag to give it a dry wipe then it was onto paint. You can paint this stuff straight onto metal and that's what I did, no primer was used.

I'm not sure, I had just planned on painting the coils a flat black, I might have to try this on the coils as well though. Once I get this thing on the road I'll let you guys know how it all holds up. Shouldn't be to long now, just gotta find an exhaust manifold and 1 Bbl Carb.

I got all kinds of responses from my friends when I brought this thing home, who cares what they think though. They've got no clue about how cool these trucks can look and obviously they also have no clue on how these trucks are doing nothing but appreciating in value. It's an investment for the future.

And, for those of you who haven't seen the before picture...Without further ado, here it is.

Re: Nude Pictures!!!

Looks great Dylan. Alot better than the can made me think.
I think that stuff dries flexible, so i don't see why painting a coil spring would hurt anything. But, why not just use some rattle can spray on the springs? I'm sure it'd hold up for a while. Same with the frame. That stuff should work out just fine. Nice work on the prep and application. You can tell you took your time with how nicely the frame looks.
Whatcha got planned next after the frame's finished?

Re: Nude Pictures!!!

After the frames finished...Haven't really put much thought into that haha. I figure I'll get my exhaust manifold and my carb, then put those on and bolt up the new exhaust system that's been in the corner of my room for two or so months now. After that comes the engine tune up and I'll finally have a driving vehicle again! Been about two months, actually I think three now without a vehicle. It blows seeing as this would have been my first summer with a mode of transportation other than parents. Then since it's all in nice working condition comes sandblasting or media blasting. I had a guy give me a quote of 300.00 for my whole truck sand blasted. I've heard media is better though so I'll have to find someone to give me a quote on that as well. Then it's going into primer and the bodywork can begin. Just got a cab corner in the mail and I suppose I'll start stock piling body panels/patches for the time when I start on all of it. I'm tired of typing and tired of being awake so I'm out now.

Re: Nude Pictures!!!

Not having your ride right now may suck, but while all your friends parents are buying them cars or letting them drive theirs, you'll be pulling up in a ride you built yourself, no pride will ever amount to that, you'll be "too cool for school" in no time.... not really though, you're never too cool for education....... i'm a nerd.
