my67chevytruck · 08-03-2009, 09:51 PM

keith, Truck is looking good!
if you dont mind me asking where did you get the dolly's from. I have seen some at harbor freight, but just curious, where you picked those up from, and are those the same dollies that are supporting the jackstands in previous pics.

Thanks

Heath

72BlckButy · 08-03-2009, 09:55 PM

Lookin' good Keith!

n2billet · 08-03-2009, 09:57 PM

I picked them up at a local swap meet and they are the same ones that are supporting the jack-stands.

SCOTI · 08-07-2009, 11:45 PM

rustSpot · 08-10-2009, 12:35 AM

I think I too may have this can! Great name Scoti!

msgross · 08-10-2009, 07:43 AM

Here's a pic for you 2WD guys, I saw this fancy rearend at the Carlisle show last weekend. It was on a 72 truck...

BACKYARD88 · 08-10-2009, 09:43 AM

I don't think we have a flat enough road to drive that on here

68 short step · 08-10-2009, 05:54 PM

man that hurts my head thinking bout how that works, and how well it would work....?????

**lolife99** · 08-10-2009, 07:47 PM

Looks like the shocks "lay down" when the bags "air up". I'm pretty sure that won't work.

rustSpot · 08-10-2009, 11:21 PM

Looks like it'll work to me.

72BlckButy · 08-12-2009, 01:59 PM

Guy's (SCOTI/n2billet), I think Heath was able to pull the information you might need in relation to the KYB shocks. Check it out...

Hope this helps

I know this drill well.... Scuff & spray is just that. You want to clean everthing as much as possible using a Scotchbrite pad (green or red) & some cleaner if warranted (SimpleGreen or similar). This frame was very clean so it didn't require the SimpleGreen step. It was scrubbed, blown off w/an airhose, & then thoroughly wiped down w/some shop towels soaked in thinner to degrease everything.

For color, we like to drive these things which means stuff will get chipped/scratched & we want to be able to do quick spot repairs. The frame/suspension are coated w/Krylon industrial semi-flat black (available @ places like Grainger & Fastenall). Easy to apply, dries fast, but is not bullet proof.

If there's any hint of rust on your frame (none on this one), use a DA sander on the outer surfaces to remove as much as possible (all of it if possible). A large diameter wire wheel on a drill will help get stuff off the inside surfaces.

Just wipe everything down w/thinner or degreaser prior to laying down your choice of color. Use 'lint free' towels too to keep things free of lint trash.

aggie91 · 08-25-2009, 04:16 PM

SCOTI is right, that is a fool proof way to prep one if you are going to drive it and not make a trailer queen. For the paint, I have used Rustoleum Semi Flat Black that I got from Home Depot and was very pleased with the results. Same as the Krylon, tought but not completely bullet proof.

I hope the we get to see more of Hazel soon, I know he has other more important things on his plate right now.

SIXT8LOU · 08-26-2009, 02:05 AM
