Project '64 Cheapskate

Thanks for the kind words, eldogg!

The paint I used was Rustoleum "2x" Semi-Gloss Black spray paint that I bought from OSH. Because I wasn't starting with a freshly blasted frame, I hand-sanded it, then hit it with rust converter. On all the clean, bare metal areas, I hit it with etch primer. Not too sure how the stuff is going to hold up, but if I have to touch it up, I'll just mask off the area and do a quickie. This truck is going to get the wheels driven off of it when I finally get some time off of work to finish it. It won't be a trailer queen.

That's awesome that you did the caster trick. I'm really anxious to see how much extra caster it'll provide. Keep me posted if you get your brother's truck to the alignment shop before I do!
