Geting the frame painted is a nice turing point. It looks great!

Thanks. It took lots of sanding and wire wheeling to remove 51 years of grease, rust, and weird things.

Very nice! Might I suggest satin black instead of flat black for a more OEM look?

Thanks. This is what I used. Easy to brush, roll or spray. I brushed and rolled the frame. I used the same product when restoring my '87 Chevy G20 van floor. From work van to camping van.
