Another member on here did the same with his truck and it turned out really good. The only thing I'm going to do different is use a red oxide primer rather than black so it looks like rust spots.

Fed ex showed up today with my gas tank from cpp and my trailing arm bushings and some door hinge pins and bushings. This morning I finished cleaning the frame all up and got it painted. I also got the trailing arms primered and painted. I also got some spacers to put the front tires on to be able to move it.

I was able to get an hour or so in tonight. I worked on putting my cab back together. Got the upper kick panels set in place and got the inner cowl piece set in place with a few spot welds. It was good to see it look like a cab again.

Did some more spot welding and set the cowl on just to remind me what it looks like lol. I had intended on using disc brakes on the rear but just couldn't justify the cost since I got all new drum brake parts for less than 200 dollars.
