Looks great!

So I got out today to do some de-rusting of the frame, all the while enjoying the shade from my new car port. stripping rust off of a truck frame is not an easy task, especially when your primary weapon is a hand grinder with a wire wheel on it. Not only is it loud (had my ear protection on), but it really gets old fast. Those heavy duty wire wheels work great, but occasionally throw those wires at you. Definitely wear a face shield when doing that task.

Sprayed Rust Mort on the frame after I wire brushed it. Should not flash-rust. I will eventually use the Eastwood Rust Encapsulator and Satin Black 2k frame paint when the rust removal is done.
